Fishers Green Jack

I don't get out and about like I used to for a number of reasons. I decided to make a quick visit to Fishers Green this afternoon to see if there was any sign of the bittern. I took Mish with me in the van. I can't take her out as she is petrified of other dogs but she waits nicely and enjoys seeing what is going on.

No bittern but I did get a shot of its relative Jack heron. I'd forgotten about the photographic mansplainers one meets. I was told how to use my camera and that a white fronted duck had been seen. I gently told him that it was probably a white fronted goose and that they don't have white fronts just white foreheads.

I was surprised to see a male goosander by the wobbly bridge as I was leaving. I've added the mediocre shot taken at a distance in poor light to extras as these are a bit unusual.
