Whiteholme

Had a walk on tonight in the hope the rain might have dropped something in, very little there apart from 7 Shelduck which were most welcome. Apologies to those on the grapevine there were 7 not 6, I think I got a bit giddy with the keypad in all the excitement (well it was Whiteholme!). I haven't checked the reports but I'm sure Shelduck used to be commoner in late summer/early autumn locally?

Nice one with the Shelduck Nick. I think you are correct. I think we used to get more Common Scoters and Scaup but actual records might prove me wrong!
