THE FUTURES ORANGE...

Text from early bird Greg informs me of a Ruddy Shelduck on Ashtons.I arrive with Tasha (got to do the doggy walking while I'm in work limbo) and see that BT Dave and Mark T are already on the Witton lookout scanning Ashtons...''seen the Ruddy Shelduck chaps?''...''what Ruddy Shelduck Pod?''...''the one Greg found this morning''...(didn't know at the time it had already done one and probably buggered off with the Canadas)...''no but the Greenshanks still here''.



Walking round to bund hide hear the two..two..two.. of Greeny as it flies over to Neumanns.A new in wader at last in the shape of a male Ruff (nearly a Buff breast!) with a Redshank and the usual entourage of BH Gulls,Lapwing,Canadas,Greylags covering the spit.









Typical view from Bund Hide...
