A very unfortunate mistake!

10/7/06 Ouse Washes Leaders; Simeon, Matthew, Connor
James had been told that a Spotted crake had been heard fairly recently at the Nene Washes. James thought they said Ouse Washes, so off we went, looking for crakes at the completely wrong reserve! Anyway, despite the disapiontment, we managed to pick up a few decent sightings there anyway. Several Kestrels had been seen on the journey there and Marsh Harrier was seen hunting over the reedbeds. Other highlights present were; 2 Common Snipe, Common Tern, Turtle Dove, Blackcap, Reed Warbler, Sedge Warbler, 2 Kingfishers from Kingfisher Hide and the usual yet beautiful Tree Sparrows.
