Scaling Thursday pm

Went to Scaling Thursday evening. Perhaps shouldn't have bothered - but you never know. All those folk looking for the Yellow-nose' by seawatching have got it completely wrong, all the evidence to date suggests it likes small gravel pits and fishing ponds. Scaling is probably too big a bit of water but, hey, let's give it a go I thought. But I should have trusted science and statistics cos it wasn't there, neither was Wandering Alb' or Black-browed. There was a Lesser Black-back, there were some Teal and I strongly suspected rat in hide (Shut that door!) but Yellow-conk, nope.
