Scaup (female) – Dave Hutton |
Shustoke Reservoir lies two miles east of Coleshill on the B4114 Coleshill to Furnace End Road, south of the River Bourne. At 1.5km west to east, the main pool is only 400m at its widest point. The River Bourne feeds the smaller eastern pool (8 acres), the water is then transferred to the main reservoir (92 acres). Disturbance at weekends can be a problem.

Sunday 17th October
I have been too busy trying to get the garden ready for the winter to make any trips over at the weekend. But there was a female Scaup (124) that tempted me but I really wanted to finish the garden. However, Dave Hutton kindly sent me a couple of photographs of the bird. I just hope it is there on Tuesday which will be my first opportunity to catch up with it.
