It is Gary. Best count of Wigeon i've had in years on the reservoir complex, at best it's one or two, with many blank years. I watched them arrive from the south, about 12:30. Circled twice landed northern end close to Grey Heights wood side and started feeding on the partly submerged vegetation straight away.
