Fly Flatts / Cold Edge Dams


           3 unringed Barnacles, Cold Edge

    Bit of an odd Tufted, possible hybrid or just
    the way the light is reflecting on iridescent purple
on head. Some books class it as a variant.
                                         



                                              Commons
                                               Greylag.

Early a.m. and although I ordered a westerly wind I did,nt want so much making the area unworkable with a near gale force W>7 blowing at 32 m.p.h. so after 30 minutes sky watch showing just a few Herring gulls >NE I dropped down to Cold Edge Dams where it was very cold and windy but birdable.
            The 3 Barnacle geese were in the usual field along with 251 Canadas and 2 Greylag whilst Leadbeater Dam held 5f 2m Tufted, 5 Common gull, 8 Lapwing.
