Sightings at the Saxon Mill


On my usual survey of my patch at the Saxon Mill at Guys Cliffe I had begun to despair of anything interesting. It was cold and there seemed to be very little about. That was until a Water Rail emerged from the reeds. It wasnt very timid and I was able follow it for some 20-25 minutes as it moved downriver along the bank. I last saw a Rail there 2 years ago.


I also saw a dog Fox on the opposite bank the first I ve seen on the site in nearly 3 years.
