Grantchester - pair of Mandarin (Michael Holdsworth)

Ouse Washes - male AMERICAN WIGEON just north of Earith Industrial Estate. Park sensibly in the industrial estate off Meadow Drove just north of Earith, and access the west bank of the Ouse Washes at TL393755. Walk north for 1/4 mile or so to look across the Washes  (Mark Eaton); bird likely 1st win male moulting into adult plumage (Ade Cooper). No evidence of captivity or hybridisation apparent, although views have not been especially close as yet.
