12th March 2023
The avian highlight of the March WeBS count was probably displaying Great Crested Grebes, although given the low numbers of Pochard in recent winters 8 of them wasn't to be snuffed at either. Whilst scanning trees on the meadows in the vain hope of seeing an owl perched up I noticed some Mistletoe in the Lime trees, the first time I'd seen it hear (although some is visible north of the river at Thorpe St Andrew). The Coltsfoot was in flower and I also noticed an as yet unidentified fungus on willow buds.
