This Daffy tufted duck was still parading her 4 young
in front of LBBs
LBBs on the north shore
Teal in to land, right hand side
2 female Teal
Common Scoter still present for 4th day
Conditions good, very similar to yesterday with 100% cloud cover and a W>3 with some good drizzle showers but not amounting to much.
As expected, a much quieter day than yesterday, well it had to be had,nt it, with no surprise raptors today. otherwise the birds were as yesterday with the Common Scoter still present for its 4th day now and still continuously diving. No movers today and just LBB and BHGs present on the shoreline.
The jungle drums tell me that waders are now on the move south so hopefully we,ll be getting some visitors shortly as well as its getting very near Osprey time.
Good to meet DJS twice this afternoon doing his rounds, a good effort there Dave with a lot of legwork and a few rewards on the way.
On a sad note... with Dave and Jens daughters wedding forthcoming he tells me they have had no time for their annual Bilberry picking so my pie has gone up the spout for another year. Looks like its back to Banana and custard again.
