After that I went and got stuck in traffic for hours on the way to (and back actually) the female Ring-necked Ducks at Rooksbury Mill LNR near Andover. Only one showed in poor light, partly because I was checking the wrong lake..always read the signs...
Ring-necked Duck:
Earlier in the week a tweet from Bola at Climping alerted me to a Dusky Warbler by the Atherington pools. On arrival I was surprised to see just the man himself and no other birders and so we had the bird to ourselves for an hour or so while it dashed around the lower canopy and then the brambles calling constantly. Impossible for me to photograph I'm afraid but there are some pics on:
Birds of Climping. Still never managed to picture a Dusky or indeed a Radde's Warbler so hopefully next year!
