A short video of yesterdays Bittern from Hanson Hide taken on my happy snapper.
At the South end of the ARC Pit this morning in a freezing wind I met DW and TG, who had both been looking at the sea with nothing to report. 3 Scandinavian Rock Pipits present with up to 6 Pied Wagtails, 1 Bar Tailed Godwit, 1 Dunlin, 1 Common Snipe, 1 Marsh Harrier and at last my first Slavonian Grebe of the year. Over the road on the New Diggings of note 6 Smew and the Great White Egret still.
A short while spent at Burrowes Pit 2 Caspian Gulls. The 3rd year above and a second year bird and little else of note.
No repeat of yesterdays performance at Hanson Hide this morning, thougth the Slavonian Grebe had relocated to the northern end. A Bittern dropped in by the screen hide, A red head Smew swam past Hanson, 16 Curlew dropped in, 1+ Marsh Harrier hunted the reed beds, a Cetti's Warbler chattered, a Water Rail squealed and a Chiffchaff was at by the hide. Back home early to be dragged out by my better half to buy a new car.
