Middleton Nature Reserve
Just checked the three ponds on east side of MNR:
Main pond
Mute 3 adult 7 juv
Gadwall 6
Mallard 4
"Wigeon" 1 - this is the bird previously thought to be a hybrid, partly down to its unusual behaviour. But the decision now is: just a female wigeon with odd habits. See pic below (MD)
Moorhen 6
No Swimming pond
Mute 2 adult
Shoveler 2 (m&f)
Gadwall 21
Teal 2
Coot 1
Moorhen 6
Tim Butler pond
Mute 1 adult
Mallard 4
Gadwall 2
Moorhen 2
Redwing 17 grounded
The odd, at least by behaviour, female Wigeon.
