Think that one must have over-summered locally…


A dreary overcast afternoon in Yakumo and hard work with the RF 600 f/11…
A pair of Garganey were present as were several Northern Shoveler, Great and Little Egret, Eurasian Curlew (presumably the same bird as 3 weeks ago) and about 200 White-fronts…
I just can’t escape geese: this lone straggling White-front was in parkland atop a cape!
The Ospreys have returned…not great pics it has to be said.
And near my apartment all the snow has gone…
Other birds around on Monday in the Esan area were Glaucous-winged Gull, Harlequin Duck, lots of Brent Goose and a lone White-tailed Eagle.
