Apparent FERRUGINOUS DUCK at Linford today







A female-type FERRUGINOUS DUCK was found by Andy Harding at about 1330 hours at Linford Nature Reserve, and then seen by Simon Nichols shortly later. The bird was skulking beneath overhanging vegetation and was associating with a small group of Northern Pochards. It remained on site until dusk. Please note that this reserve is permit only


Elsewhere, both HEN HARRIER and MERLIN were still present at Gallows Bridge this evening, whilst Alan Stevens saw both ICELAND and MEDITERRANEAN GULL at Spade Oak this evening
