Wasn't expecting anything last night, but 6 turned up and 3 species. Common Quaker, Hebrew Character and a Clouded Drab. My daughter was very happy. Best result of the year.

A couple of hours around Frampton this morning where the Merlin evaded me yet again. Then hot footed it over to Lincoln to see a lifer in the way of this beautiful Smew.

My daughter put the trap out for the first time this year while I was away. Only the moth, and it was the Common Quaker.

I wonder why every duck in the vicinity made a hasty retreat at Deeping Lakes.

Lovely morning with @mattdenial.bsky.social and @robstevenson.bsky.social at the coast. Cackling Goose, Barnacle Goose, Rock Pipit, and Shore Lark, being the ticks of the day.

Rather pleasant day today, roaming around the fens. Red Breasted Merganser is a lifer for me. And some better views of White Fronted Geese, and Common Cranes.
