    Ok, I'm not normally any good at this, so I'm going to get in here quick befor al the cleverbods get in.

    I recently saw this chappy on the RSPB website:

    - Mergus albellus , commonly known here as a Smew (which I have to say is why I remembered seeing it.. I LOVE the common name!!).

    At least, I think it is a Smew

    Freaky !! I have decided to try and ID these birds (it will have to involve searching for them as I know few birds, so it will be educative ). I opened my new Collins guide... only to have opened it up at the right place!!!!
    I won't say anything yet so it gives those who only look later in the day a chance to take a look.
