🐦 Two newcomers, a Whooper Swan (actually a group of them flying towards the river) and a Great White Egret.

🌬️ High winds meant that it was too dangerous to walk by the river this morning.
🏑 My garden birdwatch yielded some amazing results however.
🐦 Two newcomers today, the Whooper Swan and the Great White Egret.
