  1. Little Grebe today. At the Westbere "R-n Duck" platform. The Goosander is at the same place but seems to spend its time behind the island so best to go to the view point further up where you can see behind the island. Brendan

  2. Not sure if you have had Willow Warbler this year but one singing at Collard's this morning Brendan
