Goosander, Oystercatchers, Great Crested Grebes

Cool and sunny, c. 1°C.  Not too much to report today.  A couple of Oystercatchers were on the Jetty by the Rowing Club.  No sign of the Med Gull in recent days.  A couple of Goosander on the reserve.

Highlight was a Great Crested Grebe that caught a fish fairly close to the road, and I managed a few snatched shots as it devoured it.
