Drake GOOSANDER in Brocket Park

Whilst on a late afternoon walk through Brocket Park with my family I had a good local find in the form of a superb drake GOOSANDER. We had looked at the lake and seen very little of interest when I spotted the Goosander flying in from the north west shortly before dusk. The bird circled The Broadwater before landing to feed amongst the Coots in the fading light. Another good tetrad tick! (Anthony Dorman)
