Teal at Par Beach Pool

Report. R.Lane 28th November 2010

"Probably you'll get better reports to replace this one, but we spent a very cold half-hour at Par today. On the way in we glimpsed a small flock of Teal (c.10) and little else! Driving up to the western car-park I did find an increase to 7 x G.C.Grebes in the Bay.
Then Andrew arrived and hinted there was more on the Pool than we saw ! So we paused again after leaving him to visit Fowey, and, thanks to Andrews remarks, we saw 1 x Barnacle G; 1 x Bar-headed G. and a flock of c.30 x Teal, quite sizeable for Par Pool, probably due to the weather. The Pool was one-third frozen over, after last night's minus 6degsC !"

Thanks for the report Roger.

We had a Brambling visit our garden feeder yesterday and today....seems well taken with the Nyger Seed.
