Ticklist Update

Now its march and i'm getting on with my first ever bird list. February produced 16 new species, bringing the 2010 total to 79 bird species. I didn't have as many site visits this month as in january, but still managed to see plenty of good wildlife.

Highlights were -
Greater Spotted woodpeckers at Potteric Carr and Wollaton
1st Willow Tit and 1st Water Rail
Firecrest, Treecreeper and Nuthatch at Bestwood Country Park
Redwings at various locations
Snowdrops popping up everywhere.

Now we have March to look forward to, the weather is set to improve now, and the 1st true signs of spring will be showing well in the next few weeks. Uni dissertation is also in at the end of the month, so got that to look forward to!
