More Ring-necked Ducks

Managed to see one of the Ring-necked Ducks from the garden this evening and that has reassured me that I hadn't previously overlooked them. Pretty distinctive even from this range. Still slightly miffed I didn't find them but so it goes...

Tree Sparrow in the garden morning and evening today and a flock of four Arctic Terns went over the garden, entering airspace. Later a further 8 Arctic Terns were high over neighbouring fields, these two flocks were heading north. I'm guessing it is too late for them to breed elsewhere, perhaps they're just wandering. First high flying flocks I've seen this year.
