Black Necked Grebe - Draycote waters


We had a lovely few hours at Draycote we saw the Black necked Grebe which is a lifer for me, love the Red eye stands out so much, looks like mystical.
Can't wait to hopefully see one in full breeding plumage in the spring :)
We also saw Dusky Canada goose nice to see one and see the differences much smaller, shorter necked, and more of a dark dusky color breast.
The white fronted Geese and Pink footed Geese were present but they keep moving away from us.
The Smew was showing well when we first got there, also on the grassy area there was Meadow Pipits the closest views I have had of them :) Got a better photo of Little Grebe love them so much so cute, nice views of a Common Gull too.
Very enjoyable day with Dave as always.
