Minsterworth and Walmore (2 February 2011, contributed by Mike Smart)
Minsterworth Ham: at 10.00 the Whoopers family (two adults and a cygnet) were back on the usual field below the A48 lay-by together with two Mutes, but they had all disappeared by 12.30.
Walmore Common; family of five Bewickâs (two adults and three cygnets) present at 10.15, on the freshly reseeded edge of the ditch on field C, but they rose and flew off towards Slimbridge at about 10.45. In addition maybe 100 Teal, 1 Snipe and 4 Ravens.
