A few hours at my local patch produced a couple of year ticks and some good photo opportunities. Three Gadwall, a few Fieldfare and a Song Thrush moved my patch year list on to 50. I decided to spend some time at another local site, to try my luck with a few more photos, before heading back home for breakfast. Not a bad morning in some decent winter sunshine.
