Goldeneye

Posted by Hoshisato (Ealing, United Kingdom) on 28 March 2009 in Animal & Insect and Portfolio.

A bit of a cheat: this was taken in the section of the London Wetland Centre where they keep birds from all over the world but fact is that I have seen them on the IJsselmeer in Holland during winter (but never this close).

Thanks for all your comments, please keep them coming. You will do me a great favour by visiting my black and white gallery or blog. For my trip reports, please visit my Travel Blog page.

I'll be in NL for the holidays if I can make it through the forecast snowstorms, see you in 2010! Update: I've not been able to reach Dover for two days in a row now, P&O ferries are not able to take any calls, I have no idea when I'll manage to make it to NL ^_^;;
