Thursday January 3

I suppose its not surprising that with near identical conditions (but colder) today's crop of birds would be very similar to those found two days ago.

The nearest flash pool continues to look good, the sedges at the back hiding at least 20 Teal, while the Shelduck, a pair of Wigeon, and a pair of Gadwall remain settled.


Gadwall
I still enjoyed the morning. The new species for the year were Jay and Kestrel, while several you would expect seem to be completely absent. Where are all the Skylarks?

Kestrel
I also photographed my first mammal of the year, as a Roe Deer posed at the top of the weedy strip.

Some sunshine would be good.
