Mermaid Pool- Blake Mere ( North staffs moors)
Snow Bunting still at 08:15 around the track near the pool approx 700 metres north of the Inn on the left side of the road........NMcl.
Now 2x Snow Buntings at 14:30 around the track near the pool ........SS.DP.NJS.
**PLEASE NOTE** We've been asked to point out please do not to park on track to the side of the pool or drive up it. Also please do not to walk over heather area to the right of the full length of track as the Snow Buntings use that part of the moor as well as track. Disturbance not an issue currently but it could be if things get out of hand. Birds are feeding along track or at the end so need to use common sense and keep a distance.
