A quick visit to Daventry Country Park this morning while Abigail had a shortened music practice. The pay & display machines are now working again with a fee of £2 per day. It was a mild and sunny morning, but the sun was in the wrong place making it difficult to scan the water. A Sparrowhawk constantly spooked the Lapwings and c300 Golden Plovers. A Green Sandpiper was on the west shore. Gulls included at least two Yellow Legged, Common, Black Headed, Lesser Black Backed, Herring and Greater Black Backed. Ducks included Wigeon, Mallard, Shoveler, Teal, Pochard, Tufted, Goldeneye and Goosander.
