A Few Birds - Lodmoor Walk.

Birds regularly observed at Lodmoor Reserve Weymouth.

Kingfisher (Female)




Male and female Teal Duck are common and usually observed close to the footpaths.

Snipe

Snipe are in attendance somewhere around the Reserve.
Some days they are not bothered by humans, other days they hide away in the reeds and are not easy to locate.







Generally there are at least three Little Egrets on the Reserve.

Lapwing can be observed throughout the year at the Reserve, but Winter is the time to see at least 100 either standing still in flocks or suddenly taking off, flying around and returning to the ground again.
Often it is the Marsh Harrier putting in a fly-bye that causes this.

Ik kan je blog momenteel niet bezoeken. Mijn antivirussoftware waarschuwt me dat niet te doen, omdat het op de een of andere manier gevaarlijk is.
Oprechte excuses.

  1. The beautiful kingfisher has a very scheming look about it. Probably sizing up its next snack.
