Baikal Teal at Last


Yesterday I got the chance to try again for the drake Baikal Teal that has been showing at Marshside RSPB.  I say again because I've been no less than three other occasions in the last fortnight and failed miserably each time.  Having emailed Jeff Hazell,  a recent participant on our "November Costa Blanca Tour " to tell him of my failing he was quick to reply and tell me he had already been up and seen the bird.  At seventy something years old Jeff, you are a legend.  As you can see from the picture below,  I finally managed to see the elusive bird and well worth my trouble it was  - Mark
