Larger than our resident ducks, these birds will (if given the opportunity) fish in large teams, and whilst their usual habitat is further north on rivers they do seem to be moving further and further south during the colder months, and not turning their beaks up at the abundance of lakes here!
Thankfully, we are glad to report that we are winning this particular war - thanks to our team of 'scareboys' !
We've got an army of them strategically placed around all of our ponds, and they are doing a magnificent job of sending these unwelcome visitors on their merry way!
With spring (and guests) fast approaching, we'll soon be able to retire our army - until next time!
