Goldeneye at L. CyD.



With 5 Shelduck present yesterday at L. CyD there was bound to be some aggravation. The female Pochard remained distant, but the female Goldeneye approached closer than I have ever observed it before. No Egrets yesterday, but here were 3 Great Whites together a week ago.

  2. She's a lovely wee thing - do like a Goldeneye. Assume that was from the hide Chris?
