LGRE is back

Back after ten days touring the UK. Highlights whilst I was away included a flock of 11 or more EURASIAN WHITE-FRONTED GEESE on the Jubilee River at Marsh Lane, an adult drake SMEW on Willen Lake, a county record flock of 8 GREATER SCAUPS at Caldecotte South Lake, up to 3 MERLINS, some excellent counts of GREY PARTRIDGE in the snow and both juvenile ICELAND and GLAUCOUS GULLS at Calvert Sailing Lake. The GREAT WHITE EGRET remains present too in the Chess Valley.
