Eccleston Mere

Cuckoo 1 calling
Common Tern 1
Lesser Redpoll 3 displaying
Oystercatcher 1
Whitethroat 5 singing

The Cuckoo was the first I have heard this year and only the third I have heard at the mere since 1999.

It's always nice to see Lesser Redpolls displaying. They breed at the mere in very small numbers. There maybe more, click to find out >>>
