Kingfishers 2023

 October, November, December 2022 and January, February 2023, I was up first light on my bike along the River Rea. There were Kingfisher dotted along the river at L (both sides), S, TA, CH.

Along the Bourn Brook Kingfisher at the blue bridge and Uni. I think the Uni Kingfisher was the same one as on the Rea. I saw an adult female a couple times  and it had the same red beak markings as one from the Rea. First time I'd been able to identify a Kingfisher this way.

The CH Kingfisher tried to move to the Rea but got chased off and I did not see it again at it's BB location.

Occasional Kingfisher at KN and Wychall.

New year 2023 3 Dippers on the Belne Brook. saw them a couple times but not in Feb. It took until April to find one.

New year, 4 Dippers on Dowles Brook then 2 in April.
