Cattle, Water, and Kite

Hard going today (26th) but worth the effort. The Water Pipit that was on Mappins' on Friday was still present and showing periodically well as it weaved its way in and out of the vegetation on the edge of the pool, albeit distantly. Nice to be able to watch one properly for a change! Still 2 Redshank, this time on Down, along with 4 Shoveler. The Cattle Egret was located among a flock of 8 Little Egret in roadside fields between Downash and Rickney, the same bird as seen last weekend based on the plumage although the image above doesn't do it justice...
Back at home a Red Kite drifted east over the garden at 13.15.
