Some periodic ramblings about bird, butterflies, moths, dragonflies, hovers and anything else that pops into my head.

Rather more typical shot of Bittern above, distant Goldeneye, GWE and one of 75+ Linnet feeding in front of Tern Hide. KK (again!), this time with MK and plenty of talk about the eagle unsurprisingly. Andy and Sarah were in Ivy South. A glimpse of Water Pipit, single Green Sandpiper, the Black-necked Grebe and getting on for 60 Pintails. Returned across the forest checking Janesmoor (yesterday's Goosanders long gone) and a quick chat with roadside eagle twitchers near Milkham but no sightings. Interestingly, someone posted an 11:30 sighting at Picket Post but not until 20:30 on GBH, so its still in the area. No time for a walk here and with PFC at home it took a while to get through the traffic.
