Draycote Water (Again!)

I had difficulty spotting Francoise in her camouflaged birding outfit!


Draycote this morning was rather quiet with only the drake Lesser Scaup showing well, but distant, off Hensborough Bank and a Ruff near Grays Barn, of note. As I was carrying my camera, I felt obliged to use it, and concentrated on the more common birds!
