Wheatear 5
Grey Partridge 2
Shelduck 2
Tree Sparrow 8
Shelduck may be thought of as mainly coastal birds, usually on estuaries, but in spring a few come inland looking for breeding sites. They are regular visitors to the local mosslands, and the photo below is typical, but they are very scarce breeders, and even when they do attempt to breed, they very rarely seem to fledge any young due to predation from crows, gulls and presumably foxes.
