Other news today

3 Tree Sparrows were seen by (Geoff S) this morning at EGP - Tag Lock area.
The Tree Sparrows are great news, especially with all the management to improve the habitat down there recently as well as the work for the colony at Jay House Lane - well done. Lets hope we see some re-colonisation of this area where they used to breed many years ago.

Also along the canal this morning c20 Siskins.

It would be nice to get some rare duck or grebe turning up on the ski-lake in this wintery weather but nothing out of the ordinary reported on there for some time.

Worth thinking about nestboxes?

Hi Nick
Tree Sparrow nest boxes are planned for the area.
