Mop up

It's that time of the year when thoughts turn to remaining year ticks. Don't know about you but the enthusiasm at the last knockings ain't the same as first footings! Anyway I managed 3 yesterday. I had a male Gadwall (H.106, P.155) whirring north...a Village lifer no less. This was followed by a distant Great Crested Grebe (S.117, P.156) on Beacon Ponds...

and a couple of Shoveler (S.118, P.157) on a nearby pool.

19/11/1969...a wintering WALLCREEPER arrived in Dorset, staying till the 18th of April!!! Just a thought...

More on Florida...when I can't bird here!
