Much less time in the field for me in 2025 but it ended on a high when this white-morph Snow Goose appeared among the local Whooper Swan flock on Christmas Eve. Seemingly wedded to the swans having presumably arrived with them in the autumn …

A rare opportunity in the gloom of Sunday morning to see three scarce Aythya species side by side at Tallington Lakes in South Lincs. One of those patch pinch-me moments! @lincsbirding.bsky.social
