Today, temperature a bit above freezing. There is still ice on small canals, but not on the river.
Tufted ducks diving near the river Rhine. A great cormorant.
On the river bank, and sometimes on a small boat moored there, a grey wagtail. This species is unusual for a city. A grey wagtail photo is here.
Grey wagtail in Tunisia: here.
My feeding of water birds attracts scores of black-headed gulls, one common gull, and a few coots and mallards. Fish-eating great crested grebes keep their distance from the melee.
