Long Tailed Ducks

A trip out bird watching with my mates was the order of the day not seen them for a couple of months due to Mick working 4 weekends on 3 off.
So plenty of catching up and a trip to the coast on a very windy day.
On the way we stopped off at Covenham Reservoir nr Louth. in search of a rare slavonian Grebe which we managed to see very distant and also 2 long tailed ducks which I managed to get a few shots of . As you can see from the shots the water was very choppy and these ducks are diving ducks as you can see from the bottom shot so where hard to spot at times.
All in all a very enjoyable day now for a relaxing evening with a couple of beers. Best viewed in Large
