Aldcliffe Marsh

Tuesday morning – the highlight was a (juvenile) Marsh Harrier quartering the embankment north of Wildfowlers’ Pool. Several Whitethroats in the bushes around the Pools, and a large gathering of Shelduck on them, along with a couple of Gadwall and the usual Teal. The usual lone Oystercatcher at the north end, and also a dead goose.
