We decided to have a day trip up to Kielder Reservoir. Other than a couple of Chiffchaff&#8217;s and up to eight Tree Pipit&#8217;s there was not much sign of spring\/summer visitors. It was great to find a pair of Crossbill&#8217;s however, which are amongst my favorite birds. Nearby there were over 30 Siskin and a feeding party of five Long-tailed Tits.<\/p>\n<p>Soaring over the reservoir, five Buzzards enjoyed the sunny weather. Other birds recorded included a single Goosander and a Nuthatch.<\/p>\n<p>The highlight of our trip however involved a Common Lizard which was resting close to the lake.<\/p>\n<p>Paul &amp; Adriana Buskin<\/p>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Kielder-p2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-5482\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Kielder-p2.jpg\" alt=\"Kielder-p2\" width=\"240\" height=\"180\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Kielder-p2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Kielder-p2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Kielder-p2-533x400.jpg 533w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Kielder-p3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-5483\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Kielder-p3.jpg\" alt=\"Kielder-p3\" width=\"240\" height=\"180\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Kielder-p3.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Kielder-p3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Kielder-p3-533x400.jpg 533w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Common-Lizard-Kielder.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5484\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Common-Lizard-Kielder.jpg\" alt=\"Common-Lizard-Kielder\" width=\"320\" height=\"160\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Common-Lizard-Kielder.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Common-Lizard-Kielder-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Common-Lizard-Kielder-600x300.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\" \/><\/a>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today was a warm bright sunny day.
