Inert filling in current Manor lake and build banking! Peregrine falcon being mobbed. 9th November 2022

I am now totally perplexed as to what the latest plans are.  Inert were merrily filling in Manor lake, by the old pump, with stuff being shipped over from Chandlers farm.  Whilst the extended Manor lake is supposed to be quite shallow, but with deeper bits, I thought the current Manor lake was complete. Obviously not!

I am totally intrigued as to how this area will shape out, but at least Inert are working on it.

Oh there is a possibility a sluice gate will be inserted. A friend spotted three chaps in Hi-viz wandering around the dykes. They place a stake in the south edge of the dyke around the Main reed bed.

Other than that, not much has changed.

I was very excited to see a Peregrine falcon flying around the site. First time I saw it, the thing had landed on a dry bit of the main reed bed. Second time, it was being mobbed by a Carrion crow over Finch pond, before various gulls took over.
