Male Scaup, Shustoke Reservoir |
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.

Wednesday 28th March
Got over tonight, again it was a fine evening and the Scaup was still present. It was at the western end and was showing quite well. There was a Green Woodpecker on the bank of the small pool and Nuthatch in the area. Four Sand Martin had gone through earlier (Des) and I had two late on whilst going back to the car.
