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.

Monday 24th March
Still on Sri Lankan time! Up at 5.00am so decided to take a walk around the reservoir. It was a stunning morning with clear blue skies. Bird wise it was quiet, apart from the female Scaup/hybrid type that was still present. There were no hirundines and the only birds of note was a small party of four Meadow Pipit.
