November 15th 2010

Draycote Water was bathed in lovely wintry sunshine this afternoon after the mist had lifted and Fridays 2 female Common Scoter were still present off the inlet. There had been an increase in Tufted Duck, Great-crested Grebe and Coot numbers plus 4 goosander and 4 Wigeon but not much else. Did the roost and managed 2 of the four adult Yellow-legged Gulls present but missed the Caspian Gull.

I found tonight’s moth course on migration very interesting and for the third week in a row we managed a glimpse of a Barn Owl on the way home.
