Ring-necked Duck Wilstone Reservoir

Jimmy & I decide to head to Tring to look for a reported Ring-necked Duck seen late last night, so we set off around 6 am & arrive just before 7 am, we had to wait for the light to come up so sat in the car for 20 minutes or so & then walked up the steps & headed round to cemetery corner scanning the water as we go.
Loads & loads of stuff on the reservoir we see a few Grey Wagtails on the edge also 1 Rock Pipit, a couple of Water Rail are seen over the back in the reeds, a Jack Snipe was also seen by a fellow that had joined us but we never saw it.
After 2 hours of scanning we are about to give up & look round the other side, I give one last look in the corner & bingo I pick the Duck out & get Jimmy to get the scope on it to confirm it & yes we have another year tick. So a nice little trip not to windy & near to home.
