Pheasant is a site rarity with only 17 previous live ones noted here (although several more dead corpses have been noted on the riverbank). This may be the first Pheasant ever photographed at Landguard which is just the sort of thing that is going to impress one's grand-kids or ornithological cohorts - or maybe not ! As you have probably realised by the above waffle there is not a lot about in the migrant department although a Grey Wag & a new gang of Long-tailed Tit paid us a brief visit plus a single Fieldfare was around all morning. Signs of spring are still in short supply although it is worth mentioning that a couple of Shelduck have been cavorting on the reserve early morning the last couple of days & the Linnet numbers have picked up to at least 30.
Ringing: 6 long-tailed tit, 1 great tit.
