Farmoor

A little experiment to see how fast I can do a blog post in the field using the R7 wi-fi connection to my phone and Ebird . 
A few bits this morning including the Lesser scaup , a Little gull , Whimbrel , Dunlin , Yellow wagtail , Cuckoo, Grasshopper Warblers  and Swifts . Ebird list Here. A nice haul of year ticks. 
Ok done it but it’s very fiddly but just a phone with Lightroom on , camera and 4G required now - no laptop with internet needed. 

Male Lesser Scaup (above and below) . Somewhat better views than when I last saw this bird at Staines Res here and nice to actually get the real deal at Farmoor after only getting half of one before here
An Oxfordshire lifer which puts me on a humble 172 (both ticks this year have been American ducks- American Wigeon and now Lesser Scaup ) here
