Early mornings

Yesterday and today I was out early, but with very little to report, 100+ Swift over BSL Saturday, 2 Teal LFGP. A male Mandarin on the lake gave a record shot opportunity.

A pair of Oystercatcher were in the SW corner,  but still to far to get much of a shot.

The Shelduck pair were still present again this morning and the male was head bobbing on the bank of the SW corner as the female appeared to be checking things out, but didn't appear to share his vision for a nest site.
