Barrow lodge - Walkies for Treakle

We took Treakle for a walk round to Barrow lodge today. The Slavonian grebe is still there, and the Kingfisher is still fishing in the far right hand corner from the printworks. All the usual suspects, mallard, 2 pairs of coot, some moorhen and the single drake pochard still hanging around the 2 tufted pairs. Notable however, was that one of the many BH gulls was coming into summer plummage, with a nearly full black head.
There was a goldcrest with the long tailed tit party that flew through and a flock of circa 10 siskin sheltering in a squirrel drey/old magpie nest, near barrow village.

Back at the house there was a pair of bullfinch feeding on new buds.

Nothing new for my uk 08 list.
