Two new birds for the Farmoor 2018 year list were seen today. In the morning Dave Lowe found a Mandarin Duck which is a rare bird at Farmoor with only a handful seen here. The second was a Red-throated Diver again a rare bird at Farmoor with only three others recorded in Oxfordshire this century. Sadly the Diver was only present for a short time and was seen by only three observers Peter Allen Billy and myself. This was a new bird for Billy's Farmoor Life List and takes his total seen to 168 and Farmoors 2018 year list to 117.
Below are my favourite photo's taken at Farmoor in March.
