Fowlmere and Fen Drayton

A very brief visit to Fowlmere late morning produced very little in the way of birds. A Common Darter enjoyed the winter sunshine, often perching on my jumper, and a Buzzard was seen.

In the Fen Drayton area at dusk, so despite the now thick fog, decided to visit the reserve. A Skeen of about thirty geese flew over which I’m certain were White-fronted, but in the fog I couldn’t be sure. So just heard only records of Tawny Owl and Cetti’s Warbler before I left in a pea soup at nightfall.
