2nd February

More nice weather, plenty of sunshine and only a few half-hearted wintery showers but a moderate and cold NW wind did a good job of giving the day an edge; not much time spent in the field although the Eurasian White-fronted Goose was still in fields opposite Purtabreck and the drake Smew was on Bewan with 4 Goldeneye.

This fine drake Wigeon was the highlight of a short dazzling session last night
