Having dipped on the Great Grey Shrike yesterday (it had been present) we gave it another go early today. First up, first winter male
Scaup with a very friendly female
Tufty in tow. No Great Grey Shrike so off to Upper Reservoir. 3
Pochard, 2 M 1 F. 12+
Tufty and a hand full of
Goldeneye. Then
finally a look in at Rosebush Forest Quarry for
Crossbill. Yes, 2 seen from the old railway line, and a
Pembs tick for us. Back home and a message from Richard D..... Great Grey Shrike seen after you left! Will it be third time lucky tomorrow? It's a lifer.
