A frozen Fowlmere held 19 Teals on the mere, a good count for Fowlmere! Later, a ring-tail Hen Harrier was found hunting in the fields south of the reserve; a year tick and a new bird for Fowlmere.
A visit to Shepreth L-moor produced a single Snipe before I continued to Amwell. Here were four Shelducks, a single Little Egret, and a female Red-crested Pochard, another year-tick.
Finally, just outside of Foxton village on the Fowlmere road, a Barn Owl was seen, the last bird of the year.
