Another confiding scarcity!

After still being on a bit of a high from the Little Bittern, it was great to get some more amazing views of an unusual waterbird, with the Glossy Ibis showing superbly by the old coal road at Druridge this morning until it was flushed by the farmer on his quadbike... 

Other birds around Druridge Pools included a Wood Sandpiper, drake Garganey, 4 Black-tailed Godwits and a Roseate Tern and Puffin offshore...

East Chevington produced a Black-necked Grebe, while the Channel Wagtail still at Bell's Farm rounded off another good day.
