I was able to read the leg ring on the adult male, it was silver in colour and coded ZZ8049.  I have tried to find where it was ringed but with no joy, - anyone know the location please?

 

 I'm assuming that it didn't have a Darvic ring, Sid?

(p.s. thanks so much for your call regarding my car accident, very kind & much appreciated smile )

  Paul the Swan was ringed as an adult in Dunham Massey Park in November 2013.

Family visit this afternoon. Plenty of yaffling going on around the woods from at least three different birds. I managed to get good views of two of them as well. Strangely though I didn't see any Great Spotted Woodpeckers.

I gave the ant-hills at the deer barn a good look , but nothing there so I went towards the slaughter house . Sitting on a tree stump , I heard one behind me .... it was having "a bit of do !" with a Great Spotted Woodpecker . Another landed in a Beech tree next to me (I had to check to see if Steve Burke was behind me). I saw 2 more on the way to the Obelisk and 1 repeatedly at the Obelisk. Nuthatches were conspicuous with 5 seen.
A small flock of Siskin c10 , a Grey Heron, 3 Pied Wagtail and 4 Redwing were at the Ox-Bow. Plus 2 Goldcrest.

On a lovely spring morning in the park it was good to see several members of the forum present and to meet some new folk. It's unusual for me to see any other birders there so it made a nice change biggrin

A good selection of birds was seen including a common Buzzard flying low through the trees near the obelisk, it did this 4 times; never seen that before. Also when I first arrived I noticed a group of 8 -10 Redwings still present feeding on the ground as well as several Siskin near the oxbow. Other species of interest included Nuthatch, Treecreeper, Great Spotted Woodpecker and Green Woodpecker.

A short circular walk taking in Island pool late afternoon. In addition to the usual tits and nuthatches, we saw a Green Woodpecker fly from the area of the slaughterhouse, and near the main drive were a flock of about 12 brightly marked redwing. More watchers needed at this site which I always feel should hold more birds than it appears to!

During a very quick walk around the park late on this very chilly afternoon heard the familiar si-si-si-si call of Long tailed Tits.  There was a group of twenty or so birds flitting around the coppiced trees on the grassed area in front of the house - brightened our walk considerably.

On duty from 13.00 to 17.00 in park

A quiet day in general with some highlights

1 Mistle Thrush
2 Little grebe
Tufted Duck in some numbers throughout the park on the ponds
1 Common Buzzard
1 Great Spotted Woodpecker

1 Cormorant fishing on the moat. Well over 100 Black headed Gulls in the park. Throughout the park these gulls were chasing Jackdaws with aerial battles going on all afternoon. Sometimes the Jackdaws would try to coordinate a counter attack but the gulls had the best of the fight. At one point two gulls got so brave that they started dive-bombing a Grey Heron on Island Pool. The agility of both crows and gulls was fun to watch.

The Red Kite seems to be hanging around, although this seems to be first sighting for a while. I know it was spotted over Dunham some weeks back and I saw one over Bucklow Hill shortly after.
Must be roosting somewhere local...

A last minute decision to take a quick walk in the park late evening was rewarded with a low fly over Red Kite, heading towards Altincham/Carrington Moss mobbed by corvids.

I have a reliable report from a friend of 2 ring ouzels (1m 1f) seen at a bout 3pm yesterday, in the field on the east side of the track from the stile out of Dunham Park towards Little Bollington. We got there at 5 pm and could not locate them, but it would be worth while for anyone in the area to keep a look out.

One Green Sandpiper still in the ditch viewed from the stile below the mill - I imagine it'll be clearing off before too long.
A nuthatch was busy plastering a hole in a tree near the obelisk.

Lovely morning in the park before the crowds arrived. Green woodpeckers vocal on the east of Charcoal drive near the deer barn, and one seen near island pool. Great Spotted Woodpecker around the park but the Lessers eluded us. Nice to see noisy nuthatches paired up, and the Green Sandpiper was still on the stream just outside the park wall. Two buzzards soared overhead, and a new bird for us here was a Raven.

Hi Pete and Sid

Sid's advice on the best areas to look is spot on, but it is worth pointing out that the counter under the clock has now been replaced by the new visitor centre in the car park. The reception desk should be able to provide you with leaflets containing maps.

Hope you have a good visit.

Lawrence
