On the way home I bagged the drake Smew at Pugneys. Distant views as they never come close enough but great scope views in the winter sunshine.

Ring-billed Gull
Second time lucky at Sands lane Mirfield for the Ring-billed Gull. It was nowhere to be seen on the water but a local birder said it had been seen yesterday at a weir behind the main water. A quick drive to the new spot was fruitful.
