Black-tailed godwits, Leighton Moss

Public transport routes and services change and are sometimes axed completely. I'll try to update any changes as soon as I find out about them. Where bus services have been cancelled or renamed I'll strike through the obsolete bus number to mark this change.

Spadgers

Another bunch of baby spadgers are being taught where to find the facilities. It's odd: the first few batches of spadglings are usually escorted by high-ranking males but this year they've all been with females. Unless, as is entirely possible, I've missed a whole load of them as they stayed hidden in the rambling rose. I forgot to fill up the bird bath while I was filling the feeders this morning, I was shamed into doing so by a pair of spadglings making a great fuss about bathing in thin air. They had all the actions right though when the time came for them to get into real water for a bath it took them a while to get used to the weight of the water.
