Dropped in at #Filey Dams on the way home from this morning's early survey - a brief Green Sand, Long-tailed Duck looking smart, and temps hitting a heady 3°c in the sleet 🔥

The long-staying Long-tailed (Long-staled?) Duck has gone into full-on Mexican wrestling mask mode of late here in #Filey , looking sharper everyday. Otherwise still slow for summer stuff, with Reed Warbler & Lesser Whitethroat fresh in this a.m. More: tinyurl.com/bd3rzeyt
