My Patch

Around the patch today and up to a reservoir I haven’t visited before Boshaw Whams at Hade Edge to see Scaup, this bird being a 1st winter ♂ and had settled in nicely with the other bird life on the reservoir Mallard, Coot, Moorhen and Black Headed Gull I did have also a fly thru Kestrel whilst I was admiring the Scaup. I moved on then down to Ingbirchworth to add Fieldfare, Blackbird, Mistle and Song Thrush to the afternoon list plus a calling Tawny Owl
