Broom East GPs
It's been a few weeks since visiting my new patch and it was interesting to see an increase in wildfowl.
At least 45 Wigeon were present on the pits with six Shoveler. There were some real highlights that included 120 Lapwing and 70 Golden Plover passing overhead.
A Common Snipe and Little Egret were present on the islands.
The main highlight was a juvenile Peregrine that flew in at speed and pinned a Teal, tearing chunks out of it while it despairingly attempted to wriggle free. Nature at its savage best.
