Mid November - this is an excerpt from my Flora and Fauna Diary written by one of my Guests........ what a wonderful location from which to visit Leighton Moss. A Bittern flew across - what a sight! Kingfisher from Public hide. Ducks, mallard, teal, wigeon, golden eye (pair), lapwing, curlew, little egrets, great white egret and the sound of Cetti's Warbler. But the best.......... the Starling Roost! I saw them come in, in the evening, walked the reserve very early, heard them all chattering, then a loud whooshing like strong wind and they were up and away.
Whilst walking the dogs at dusk in our fields, I have almost had to duck out of the way of these murmurations and have seen the sparrow hawks hunting in amongst them.
