Collected replacement scope late this afternoon, so a quick visit to Tices Meadow to try it out.... Barn Owl arrived just before 6 (I think). Also present 6 Canada Geese, 5 Teal, 3 Herons and a few Carrion Crows. A few Mallard flew over. Views of the Owl were amazing!- jort

Egret by Sainsbury's Watchmoor Park
Morning, Last evening, 6.30pm, I was just turning into Sainsbury's Watchmoor Park when an Egret flew overhead, coming to land just behind the supermarket (Meadows roundabout direction) - unfortunately I couldn't tell whether it was Little or Cattle. I'm pretty sure there is a small lake there...
