There is always one...

This was on BBC Nature's home page for a little while...

Common Scoter, female

For once, not flying past or distant.  The first half decent image that I have of a Scoter.  A certain well known birder of Bucks insinuated on a micro-blogging social media  site that it wasn't wild.  Pffft.

Cley, post flood.

A few views of variable quality of the Cley area taken this afternoon.  Lots of words already said in many media, but I think that the pictures (not necessarily mine I might add) are more powerful.  If you love this place like we do, try and get out there if you can.
