Pennington Flash, two 1st winter greater scaup at the western end this morning #PFBirding

Pennington Flash, adult drake lesser scaup this morning. Initially in east bay but then flushed by boat & may have landed in Ramsdales #PFBirding @birdguides.bsky.social

Knot at Carr Mill Dam, St Helens today at 8:45am, seconds before it walked behind a post and then flew off. The first record for the borough away from Prescot reservoirs #StHelensBirding

Thanks. I asked because there's a ruddy shelduck been travelling with pinks for a year or two, seen in Lancs, Norfolk & probably Scotland. Presumably going to Iceland with them as well.

Barra, juvenile black tern again this afternoon from Eoligarry jetty in the mist and rain. A bit different to watching them at Pennington Flash, apart from the mist and rain #BirdingScotland @rayb126.bsky.social @birdguides.bsky.social
