26/12/2018 Lunt Meadows Nature Reserve

Tree Sparrow: Dawn and I blew away the cobwebs and burned off the mince pies and Christmas pudding on a Boxing Day birding walk.







Lunt meadows was our destiantion a smart little reserve were thousands of wintering ducks, geese, swans and waders use the flooded reedbeds. 


Short-eared Owl: We plenty of wigeon, teal, pintail, shoveler, mallards, lapwings, ruff, snipe and a handfull of whooper swans.
Besides the tree sparrows that gave us pretty good views we also had two short-eared owls that put on a good show.
Lunt is a tranquil wildlife oasis and a perfect getaway for a festive day out.
