I finally managed to get down to the pools on sunday to do my Webs, god it was grim, freezin cold, a proper lazy wind and very few birds. The Budge fields were totally frozed, highlights were 6 whoopers in the adjacent field and 3 goldeneye. I looked for king eider on the sea, but it was so cold, it froze my eyelids shut so I gave up.

GoldeneyeGrim - look at the depth of the grass, what self-respecting wader is going to breed here?

Progress?
Still it was better than my other WeBS site, Ellington Pond, which was 98% frozen and 6 teal and 5 moorhen!
It's been a hectic week on the social front, hence Sundays stuff today, went to see the Widlhearts supported by the mighty Wolfsbane last night - Fantastic! Office parties and other xmas (just to annoy BB) hilarity to follow.
