Tuesday 26th January

A quick 20-minute scan of the Motorway and Alders Lakes at New Hythe at lunchtime today. No sign of Saturday's Smew or Redpolls, but a pair of Goldeneye on Little Alders Lake. The male displayed on a couple of occasions, I attempted some photos (no more comments Warren!) but with the usual results - maybe I ought to stick to mammals!

    Adam,
    I took some Goldeneye photo's last winter of the one that visited my patch lake, the photo's were well worse than yours today!!

    You do take a good fox pic though ;-)
