Whisby - 17/02/13

Not much to add to the list today - similar species/ numbers seen.

Didn't get to see a bittern today, but did have some rather nice views of a water rail feeding close to the path. Just a shame I had my camera facing into the sun - an 'artistic' silhouette was the best I could manage!

Stunning male Goldeneyes displaying in the sunshine. Spring is on its way! :D
