A walk around Hogganfield Loch today was notable for the following:
Up to 52 Goosanders (including about 15 scrapping with the Mallards off the main car park)
Four Whooper Swans (including a family group of two adults and a first-winter)
Displaying Goldenye (plus at least one bird transitioning from immature to adult male plumage)
Eleven Cormorants roosting on the island (with others fishing)
Twenty-plus Pochard (mostly drakes with only two females)
A single Ruddy Duck with the Pochards
A single Red-breasted Merganser at the "beach"
