Hi Oliver They are on the main Thurlby Pit, access opposite the Swinderby airfield gateway, lots of wildfowl, so can take a while to locate them. Regards David |

Also 8 Little Grebe and 12 Great Crested Grebe and lots and lots of coot!! Mark |

I notice Trevor Gunby photographed a Mandarine at Kirkby Pits today ( 3rd Nov ) I would have thought this was the same bird as the one I had at Thurlby last week ? Regards David |
