A 1st winter drake scaup was off the car park today, with tufted ducks and 17 pochard, the latter a winter peak so far at the flash. The scaup looks very similar to one of the birds which has recently been seen at Amberswood Lake. This was my second scaup of the year at the flash following a cracking spring drake in April.
