There was one Tufty on the Slea near where the old river branches off as he has been for the last few days when I have been walking past, another one was on Lollycocks pond just like on Monday. Graham saw two Tufties near the Mill on Monday evening, were these different Tufties or the two above ? I wonder if the Tufty on Lollycocks pond would have come over to the Slea, met the other Tufty and then gone back to the Pond ? If not then the two Graham saw may well be two others in addition to our two.
Message for Enid: I saw 5 white Ducks today which I think is about the number that have been around for a while.
Here is one from the archives…

Hi Terry – I believe there are only 2 Tufted ducks around. I saw the two together on the pond around 1630 yesterday afternoon – (I have now seen them together on the pond twice in the past week) – I have never seen a further lone Tufty while I have seen the other 2 together.
Regards Graham
Thanks for clearing that up Graham, its a shame as I was hoping that we had more than two.
