Prescot reservoirs,

The great northern diver was finally frozen out of the reservoirs on the 6th Jan with no3 res 100% frozen and no4 res 80% frozen. Arriving on 22nd Dec it performed well for all comers and year listers. A juv iceland gull on the 3rd and 7th Jan on n04 res was interesting and going on bill colour it was probably the same individual that was here on Christmas Eve.

Today an adult Med gull, 25 goldeneye, 120 tufted duck, 4 pochard, 2 great crested grebe, 2 ruddy duck, and 4 redpoll.
