2 Shelduck

Today was a very dull overcast day, and I'd walked two-thirds around the lake before I noticed two juvenile Shelduck on the water, out in the middle.  Whether they were there when I arrived and I didn't see them I'm not sure, but once I'd seen them they didn't stay too long, flying off in the direction of Clegg Hall.
