Another 'red' day...

Two more new birds today - a smart drake Red-crested Pochard (220) and two Red-necked Phalaropes (221). Both species too distant to photograph but pretty damn good nonetheless... Much colder today with a brisk cold northerly wind and the occasional shower. I almost needed gloves - in June! The temperature, although predicted, came as quite a shock after the positively hot last few days when temperatures soared to 26 degs - it doesn't get any better than that in July and August! A short stint in the new hide at Vestamager (unfortunately badly positioned for viewing the waders) produced a few Redshank and a pair of Lapwing with chick. Plus this White Wagtail that performed very well just outside the hide.
