Couldn't work out No. 1 in GCHQ xmas puzzles (or any others TBH), but think I got this one as "Black Pool Tower"?

Goosander back on the Coventry Canal, Tamworth (Hodge Lane, Amington). Pair catching plenty of small fish. Nice to get close enough to watch for a while. #birds

JSYK: The #ebird mobile app is super-efficient for birding checklists in the field. A simple six species list, at an existing location, takes only 34 clicks from start to submission! #ukbirding #conservationtech

Exactly a year ago, the weather was a wee bit better. Pooley Country Park, Warks.

My 206th #ebird list at Alvecote Mill Pool, N Warks. Storm Bert has raised the water level of Pool and River Anker, so a bit quiet today. Nice to get out though. #ukbirding
