A quick visit to Broomey Croft after work paid dividends with a 1st winter Smew hidden away on the island at Broomey Croft.
A search from the Skan hide for the Jack Snipe failed, But there were 2 normal Snipe.
Light conditions were good for photographing from the hide and a pair of Teal posed nicely for about 5 minutes.Also present was a large flock of Canada Geese (215 counted) and a Little Grebe.
Seems strange that the people manning the bird club portacabin didn't notice the Smew, maybe if they looked out every once in a while..
