Old Blue Eyes and the Red Neck


A freshly fledged Jackdaw allowed a close approach between it's infant flights.  This photo was taken with the phone camera.  I never knew young Jackdaws had blue eyes.  Out on the Washes a Red-necked Phalarope was found and was showing from Grose Hide later in the day, a Honey Buzzard was also reported.  I couldn't get to see it but hope it looked something like this - another from the 2012 Arctic trip.
