Great to finally see some Greater (Euro) White-fronted Geese on the patch, thanks to Ranger Rick ๐๐ป A flock of 22 birds in total. Last time only the patch was back in December 2021, so a very welcome sight on an otherwise miserable grey and windy day. #DevonBirds

A couple of South African Shelduck on the patch late this evening. I was hoping they were going to be Ruddy Shelducks, as a talking point at least! ๐ Sadly not, despite the right hand bird looking superficially like one. Though could even by a hybrid.๐

There are certainly plenty of domestic cats out in Oman and often in remote places, but this male was one of the best candidates for the Arabian subspecies of African Wildcat during our recent trip. #Mammals #Oman #WiseBirding
