Can anyone identify the waterbirds in this painting by Kettering-born and Glasgow-trained artist Sir Alfred East?

It is due to go under the hammer with a guide price of £700-£1000 at the Salisbury salesroom of auctioneers Woolley and Wallis on March 5.

Sir Alfred famously (and cryptically) wrote: "The greatest errors in landscape painting are to be found – contradictory as it may appear – not so much in the matter of technique as in the painter's attitude toward Nature."
