A good number of Goosanders

23/12/05 Denver Sluice Leaders: Simeon, James.
We went to the sluice today to see how many Goosanders we could pick up. We got there and counted a good total of 17 birds. The lighting conditions were poor so we didn't manage to get any decent shots of them. We then took a walk along the left bank of the river Ouse and got nice views of the local Short-Eared Owl. Other birds we picked up on the trip were; 18 Tufted Duck, 1 Barn owl, 1 Grey Heron, 5 Great-Crested Grebes and a Nuthatch at a layby near the sluice. All in all a pretty good trip in my opinion!
