Not so important

I went to the Ermatinger Becken--Triboltingen hotspot as indicated in eBird.
It was just before dusk -- I think we saw about 6 or 7 Water Rail as well, never saw that many and that open.
The Red-Crested Pochard we saw at Münsterlingen Klinik, with hundreds of other ducks as well. We had started the afternoon at Seetaucherstrecke in Utwill, and walked around there for about 40 minutes. That area is lovely (if a tad posh), but had the least birds. I had also wanted to go to Wollmatinger Ried, but the day ran out
We will try that next time!
