I don’t know jacdaw. I was a bit hurried and just put in mergansers uk. Some UK wildfowl site called them that.

I'm definitely seeing it more often. Lovely birds, whatever they are called! Awful grumpy things when you pull them out of a (owl) nest box half way up a tree to ring them, though. |

If it was up to me we'd use scientific names for everything but I suspect I'm in a minority there 😉 I love the chuntery grumbly noise a goosander makes when it's cross with you. Only from a distance though, those sawbills look sharp 😮 |

um
On our last few NF runs, loads of cuckoos. Probably 5 or 6 based on locations, unless they're following me round. Minimum 2, because we've heard them in stereo, either 'calling to' or 'shouting at' the other one in a co-ordinated manner. |
