So out came the Warwick 100 team for their first day of 2022 birding.
A team effort around the town and surrounding fields produced lots of the regulars, but also we managed to spot a couple of species that have proven tricky in previous years:
- A flock of 20 siskin at the Saxon Mill, along with a super sunbathing cormorant.
- A pair of water rails and a kingfisher (obviously!) at Kingfisher Pools.
- Meadow pipit, skylark and kestrel were the star birds at the Racecourse.
Some of the team's gardens came up trumps also, with grey wagtail, raven and peregrine spotted.
A positive start putting the team on 46 species for our first day - not too shabby!
