The other thing that occurred to me, was maybe ask one of the wardens at Slimbridge if this bird has been seen in the past and even as a juvenile ( with the deformity) ?
I guess it depends on how closely they "look" at the population.
And Thanks

I've passed the photo to the Senior Warden, it has not been observed there before so maybe came in with some others.Mate cheers for this I think you are right went back to the paper I'd checked against and it seems to confirm this my bad . I didn't look at the map carefully enough.

Thanks for viewing and commenting.Two cracking Goosander shots, Gary - easy to see from #1 why they are called sawbills!

The face on the second image is not as sharp as I would have liked. 1/1000sec is where I should have been and not 1/800sec.

Liked the one of the Magpie fluffing up!.........Also, seems as if the Siskin are returning this year, a little earlier than last year IIRC.

The Black-headed Gulls are now pairing up and claiming their nesting area, bonding and feeding behaviour very much in evidence.
