Sun

There was promise of some sunshine so I headed out to add a few birds to the year list. It was nice to see the sun again but there were ominous clouds in the distance. There was no chance of getting closer to any of the ducks on view. A couple of Shelduck and a few Wigeon in the same place...
...while a flock of 30 Teal were a bit further away. I had picked up Tufted Duck, Goldeneye, a couple of WT Eagle, Kittiwake, Razorbill, Rook and Rock Dove before coming across a single Skylark.
The rain had started by this point so I had a quick look around but there was little else on show. A group of 4 Skylark on the roadside were nice to see...
...while a few Rock Pipits were either bathing or feeding along a stream.
