A gentle stroll around the reservoirs on a lovely still, sunny but crisp day.Twenty six Fieldfare which flew over the north of Lockwood in two flocks were the only signs of the freezing weather to the north. Two pair of Goosander came off the top of High Maynard where JN also had a Green Sandpiper. A Common Sandpiper was on No 5 while we also had six Goldeneye and six Chiffchaffs scattered around the reservoirs. But the Scaup, which was definitely still on No 4 yesterday, was missing on the two occasions we looked.
