2nd Dec - broken cloud, light SW 14C

Shawell lagoons; this morning there was 11 Cormorant fishing, 92 Wigeon, 14 Tufted Duck, 3 Teal, a Gadwall and great-crested Grebe. A Green Woodpecker called and 10 Magpies squabbled on the bank.  A Snipe was half hidden.

Pitsford reservoir; a walk here this afternoon, hoping to see the drake Ring-necked Duck which had been seen.  Actually it was easily seen with Tufted Duck and Wigeon.



 Tufted Duck for comparison
