Thanks Dan. I guess I was just lucky, as it hung around for several minutes about 40m away from me.

Trying to reclaim the scrape 'shoreline' at the privately owned John Bennett Nature Reserve began yesterday with Luke Hall. We got off to a great start strimming the reeds but there's plenty to do! If you fancy getting involved please DM me. #WorcsBirds

Despite the cold wind and rain, a couple of days in Norfolk proved very enjoyable, with the highlight being several Little Auk during a sea watch from Cley beach car park. #ukbirds

Sounds like a good possibility Gert. The group of 10 RP I saw all appeared to be 1W birds, flying around second flash hide when I arrived and then settled at back of second flash and still there when I left at 12:20.

No further sign of Black Tern at sailing pool. Appears it's relocated to Moors. 10 Ringed Plover and 2 common Sand flashes. #uptonwarren
