A 5.45 am start at Tophill Low on what I hoped would be a nice Spring day. By 9 am I had seen Barn Owl, Otter, Heron, Sparrow-hawk, Kingfisher amongst others. As the day progressed the wind increased and to top it all a few snow showers appeared.
It was well worth the visit and seeing the new Reception hide for the first time was impressive.
One of the highlights from the new hide was the Long Tailed Duck shown in this picture.
