25.07.23 : Cogra Moss, Ennerdale

Another early start and a trip to Cogra Moss, Ennerdale. Sunny but with some grey spells so I didnt hang around too long. The lake was quiet apart from a Mallard with two late season ducklings and a group of juvinile Tufted ducks, but the trees along the lakeshore was buzzing with birdlife.

I managed to see and hear, Willow Warblers, Chiffchaffs, Great and Blue Tits, Wrens, Goldfinch, Gold Crest and of course a family of four Buzzards. The Juviniles were sitting in the tree tops shouting for the parents to come and feed them, great to see some acobatic flying and encouragement to go feed themselves ! I didnt see any feeding at all.
