Grey Day at Amwell

A midday visit to Amwell Reserve seemed like a good idea but the light quality was very poor.
From the vantage point, 3 goldeneye could be viewed on the opposite side of Great Hardmead Lake along with wigeon, shoveler, teal, mallard and gadwall. Good numbers of great crested grebe and lapwings along with a flyby snipe and kingfisher. 2 marsh tits were seen along the path to Hollycross Lake but no siskins and redpolls that I had hoped to photograph.
