Abberton Resevoir and West Mersea

Spent two days with sis in Colchester so of to the res for some birding.

Best bird was distant but in realy good nick that being a GOOSEANDER with around 50 POCHARD and several hundread TEAL as well as 1 GREY HERON and that was it except for several SKYLARK singing high.
 
At Mersea a few CURLEW but best was the amount of BRENT GEESE getting ready to head of. I also had a flock of 35 GREAT CRESTED GREBE well out in the channel. As well as 3 RINGED PLOVER. I also gain a short glimpse of a COMMON BUZZARD well out on the marsh. I also had one at Rushmere St Andrew rubbish dump on the way home and another two pairs at the Woodbridge turn of on A12.
