Common Scoter at Ogden

  • Received today

Dear Nick

We have not been able to blog for some time following the change.However I have this morning seen a flock of between 30-40 black ducks land on the above in a very compact flock.Through the wardens scope they have bright yellow patches on their bills.They also had paler flight wing when they were landing.I am thinking common scoter?

Regards

Peter Drake

None there at 5 pm this aftermoon, must have gone on their way. Also no sign of the Redstart from yesterday.

Is that a record flock?

By the way what's up with Darrell, post travel doldrums?

Don't know what's happened to Darrel, probably something when he was a child.
