Same as last time...almost!

23/12/06 Denver Sluice Leaders; Simeon and James
The Sluice is my priority at the moment, trying to find that rare duck! Thought I had it today, but instead of a Ring - Necked it was just a wierd Tufted with a small ring on its bill! A summer plumaged Black - Headed Gull was strange, but nevertheless true! 1 Water Rail was calling and there were also 11 Goosander, 42 Tufted Duck, 16 Wigeon, 2 Little Grebes, 2 Whooper Swans, 2 Barn Owls, 10+ Yellowhammers, about 6 Great - Crested Grebes, 3 Dunlin, 7 Redshanks and 4 Canada Geese. An all right trip although I still can't wait for spring... Blakeney is primed!!!
