Wintersett - 1 in, 1 out 30.12.12

Mainly blue sky, cooler and with a strengthening, gusty SW/W wind.
Anglers CP:  It was a relief to see the drake American Wigeon back on the island in front of the hide.  The Long-tailed Duck  was a bit harder to spot as it emerged, very briefly between dives,  in the choppy water. The 3 Egyptian Geese  and a Shelduck were also here.
Wintersett Res: The drake Smew has disappeared again, but the 2 male Scaup were feeding off the east bank.
