White-winged black Tern at Tyttenhanger.

After missing the trip with the boys on Friday that got them 2 lifers at Portland Dorset I decide to to head to Hertfordshire for a year tick.
So with Jimmy on board I drive to pick up Brian & the three of us head up to Willow farm lake.
It's about 20 miles so in no time at all we pull into Willow farm activity yard but we can't find the lake, so after getting some directions from a local driver we drive  back to the roundabout & drive about 4 miles before pulling into the Willow fishing lake & heading down to the car park.
We pay the parking charge & the fellow in charge allow us access in the car to the lake, & as soon as we pull up by the lake Brian is out of the car & finds the Tern without to much trouble.
We spend the next hour watching a great display from a smashing looking bird as it flies up & down the lake feeding. A really nice year tick this one.
As we look over the lake we realise that nearly all the other birders have parked where we had been at the Activity farm & found a way down to the lake,still we never had to walk anywhere so a real bonus.

Jimmy & I,  Brian catches the bird flying by.
