Former hill & moorland walker. After major lower leg reconstruction, now an amateur wildlife and landscape photographer.
Locked in a concrete jungle, very concerned for the countryside.

Yesterday's sunrise (Sunday 14th Dec), red sky in the morning, shepherds warning.
Well, today, wet and dismal, the forecast for the next few days here isn't looking too different....
As originally said, it is almost winter.

An interesting male goosander.
Check the bulge at the front of the throat.
My guess, something eaten he can't swallow. He does keep trying to dislodge something.
