Marbury Park 9th January 2017
We made our first birding outing of the year to Marbury where there had been reports of Hawfinches again but, although we met people who had seen them (or thought they had), we didn’t manage to see the. Our last outing of 2017 was for the same purpose but was similarly disappointing.

The first birding group visit of November (the previous weeks outing having been cancelled due to bad weather) was to WWT Martin Mere. Unfortunately, we didn’t get to see any Brambling, the single Great Scaup or the Greenland White-fronted Geese all of which had been reported as having been seen recently; neither did we meet
