I gave birding a miss today preferring a day with the paintbrush.

Lesser Scaup still present and Max Silverman took this shot when it landed near him in toft bay this morning and Bob recieved info on one of Draycotes Mute Swan that was ringed near Stratford on Avon a couple of years ago.

Garden had a little more activity of late with Sparrowhawk, 2 Pied Wagtail, 2 Coal Tit, 12 Long-tailed Tit and a Goldfinch.
