The Lakes near Arques la Bataille
The Lakes near Arques la Bataille
This area was viewed briefly one morning, from the D1 road. We saw Great Cormorant, Common Kingfisher and a female Eurasian Hobby. Later that day we returned and walked around the lakes. This late afternoon visit yielded House Martin, Sand Martin, Barn Swallow and Common Swift hawking over the water, and Green Woodpecker, Common Cuckoo and Grasshopper Warbler in the surrounding trees and shrubs.
