Drake Ferruginous Duck present all morning on Walton’s at Ham Wall, keeping with Pochard in-and-out of the far RH reedbed looking out from the two viewing screens.

The Fudge Duck was showing well from VP1 this morning in bright sunshine and because it firstly turned its back to us showing the broad white rump and then flew showing a lot of white in the wings, I learned a bit more about how to spot one. Also 1 Firecrest on the main path towards VP2.
