Venus Pool - Goldeneyes

I finally picked a lucky moment with the Goldeneye today and there were three on view! I checked my database and the most recent records for Venus Pool came from 1st January 2016 - 23 March... 

Two coming much closer!

This female was the most obliging...

The other two?

The fun came to an abrupt end when the two showy birds too flight!

Let's hope it isn't going to be another long winter wait and a Smew is long overdue!
