Andy Bond and myself went up to Somerset today to do some birding with our first stop being at the Chew Valley Lake and we managed to see the following birds . 3 Bewick`s Swan , 40+ Tufted Duck , 20+ Common Pochard , 6 male and 9 female Greater Scaup , 4 male and 2 female Common Goldeneye , a very out of place male Common Scoter , 6 Great Crested Grebe , 2 Little Grebe , 2 Black-Necked Grebe , 4 Common Gull , a very confiding adult Ring-Billed Gull , and an adult Yellow-Legged Gull .
We then went to the Ham Wall reserve where we saw 2 Great White Egret , 1 male and 3 female Western Marsh Harrier and a murmuration of thousands of Common Starlings .
