Garganey are usually quite difficult to approach but this one is different! I caught him yesterday feeding with the resident Mallards on Pagham Lagoon on bread thown out from one of the caravans on Chuch Farm. The Black Necked Grebe is still present today but I haven't seen the Little Gull. A couple of Wheatears were present on Pagham Spit and a Chichaff was singing from an ivy clad bush despite the cold N.W. wind. The past few days have seen hoardes of birders looking at the recent arrivals and there is a report of a Scaup/Tufted duck hybrid which has caused added interest and not a little debate!

Awesome shot! Ducks are usually tough to approach, especially when they are out of the water - well done.
