Windy Days & Birthdays

A few from the last few days. Spoonbills taken in gale force winds at Church Norton. I was told & shown the Goosander redhead that has been present but for me poor weather made IDing it and photos too difficult to be 100%-a calmer day required for that one. A Little Gull was along the beach.


Spoonbills:


At Ivy Lake, an Egyptian Goose hiding in the island bushes and at least 79 Pochards, a great sight.


Pochards:




At Church Norton the next day the Whimbrel was by the bench as usual.


Whimbrel:










The missus came out with me on my birthday, I think she enjoyed it!!!
