Thursday 26th - Friday 27th March 2015

The only reports came on 27th.
The drake Scaup remained on Peasholm Park where it showed some signs of improvement, gingerly flapping regularly but diving and swimming with ease.
Elsewhere 5 Egyptian Geese, 2 Pink-footed Geese and a Goldeneye were the highlights on Wykeham South Lake, 14 Teal and 15 Wigeon were on Johnson's Marsh and a single Chiffchaff was at the Mere. On the coast 2 Chiffchaff and 1 Redwing were at Holbeck where singles of Meadow Pipit and Alba flew north and 50 Fieldfare were near Snainton.

An interesting record was of a Terrapin sp at the Mere.
