Toads

An early morning visit to try and pin down the Firecrest and adult male Black Redstart that were on the reserve yesterday evening proved fruitless. :(  Good numbers of Goldcrest around and a few Chiffchaff in song plus all the usual water birds etc. We also came across a pair of mating Toads on the path!
