Did you know that March is a great time to look out for migrating ducks and grebes. So take a walk to your local lake (lockdown restrictions permitting), you might see a common scoter, ring-necked duck, red-breasted merganser or one of the rare, slavonian, black-necked (pictured here) or red-necked grebes.
Four years ago we had a wild hooded merganser fly in to a local lake in Corsham for a couple of days.
These birds tend not to stick around, so daily visits to your local lake could pay dividends.
If you find something different let me know!
