My first full day out with Trevor since well before Christmas, as I was trying to improve the situation with my circulation in readiness for the weekend away last week with Derek, Sam & Ben, and as that was a success I was really looking forward to today. They have changed my medication and it seems to be working better! I'm still mad though :-)

It has been a good day and I must say THANK YOU to STEVE for the advice and guidance.

My images for the day are not what I had hoped for, but I had three life ticks. It would have been four, as Steve had told me there was a Red-Throated Diver reported at Sennen in the Bay and I was CONVINCED I had seen it in the scope (along with the Long-Tailed Duck) until I saw John who said he had only seen a Black-Throated Diver (and Long-Tailed Duck) at Sennen. Thanks John – it was lovely to see you. I feel it best that I do not tick the RTD (just in case). I shall wait for the next opportunity.

A nice (but short) session at Marazion produced not one, but two Bittern. Thanks to Rachel, Ash & Kay and the gentleman I did not know. Nice to see you all.

My day list is 67 and I think I have beaten my record, which I believe is 65 from a quick glance at the records!

No time to go through my pictures, but I have plenty left from Slimbridge, so here's a few more...
