December 8th 2008

Out with Dave again but apart from a stunning deep pink sunrise worth looking at there were no sign of any owls or Stonechats around Grandborough Fields Farm and little else in the valley. Draycote was quiet with only 4 Great-northern Divers (3 in same scope view off fishing platform), 8 Goosander and 440 Canada Geese worth mentioning. Male Goosander flew over cafĂ© in Long Itchington heading south. Rest of day shopping, getting gear for our birding trip to Gambia – sun and sand and life ticks.
