Another trip to Rönnen

En route to Helsingborg today we stopped briefly at Rönnen. The reason being that the Terek had been joined by a male green-winged teal. Forty-five minutes was plenty of time to get close views of the Terek and watch the teal a bit (another Swedish tick). Also here little gull (1) and gadwall (1).

Even closer views of the Terek today, allowing a record shot to be attempted.

The double-bill attracted a score of twitcher's and regulars. The two birds separated by about 200 metres. Sweet, I wonder what I have been missing in BK this week?
