With my ECOW role in Oxfordshire now completed—which I really enjoyed—I’ve started a new position in Suffolk. On the drive down to begin work today, I made a brief detour to Fen Drayton Lakes (RSPB), as a first-winter Red-necked Grebe has been lingering there for about a week.
A quick scan of the south-east corner of Ferry Lagoon soon picked it up. The grebe was showing well, offering excellent and prolonged views as it fed and drifted across the open water. A cracking way to break up the journey and a nice bonus bird to kick off this next chapter working in Suffolk.
