Common Scoter...nice one Marek

Marek called me and again I wasn't up yet, this time a female Common Scoter was gracing BSL.

Dressed in no time, if you call joggies and t-shirt dressed, I went to BSL, speaking to Marek it had swam into the big bay, so I had to go round to view it from near Sandford, where it was looking fairly happy, but slightly nervous.

The last Common Scoter was a male on 18th March 2004, apart from the 3 March records and the May bird, there have been 2 other summer records, 1 female 4th to 7th June 1991 and another female 17th July 1989.
