Re: Bird of the day!

There is also a surf Scoter at dawlish warren that has been there for a while.

If they are all still down there in two weeks time I may come down to find them.

This Saturday I am off to France, hoping to catch a sight of the Wallcreeper that has found its way to the side of Bolougne.
