Holmethorpe Sand Pits, Surrey ... 1st January 2010

A visit to my local patch to start the year list off paid dividends when fellow local birder Gordon found a sub-adult Shag amongst the Cormorants. There was also a redhead Smew on the lake which had been present for a few days, so we're off to a good start.
