Docklands Shelduck

I never really feel the cold but sitting at East India Dock Basin in London’s Docklands today for four hours was fairly chilly. A dozen Shelduck were present and occasionally a squabble would break out over a favoured muddy patch and they would fly around the basin allowing some flight shots. Also 130+ Teal, Yellow-legged and Great Black-backed Gull, Kingfisher (1-2), Little Grebe (3) and Redshank (12) with the regulars.
