Ruff at Fowlmere

Walked around Fowlmere when the sun eventually came out just before dusk. Absolutely nothing until I walked into the main hide and Doug had a wader in his scope. There was some initial debate as to its identification but to my mind it was clearly a Ruff. The forth record for the reserve apparently, and my second.

Also there was the eclipse male Shoveller a (or probably several) Wigeon were heard.
