GWE at Chenies

Local birding to kick off the New Year with Paul and Brendan. First stop was Chenies where we eventually connected with the long staying Great-white Egret. Rather frustratingly we heard a small flock of Crossbills in the nearby Baldwins Wood but could not connect with them. We then moved on to a few other local sites. A list of species and sites below.
