8th October 2017

The past few months has seen me hardly doing any birding at all apart from a cpl of visits to Seeswood Pool where I did manage to find a Cetti's Warbler on the 24th Sept which was a 1st for the pool.....during the 1st week of October a few tweets came thru saying poss 2 Cattle Egret nr Alvecote Pools,Warks then being confirmed I decided to head over for an hr on Sun morning, the birds were in their usual field but distant but after an hr or so started walking towards the few of us gathered by the gate!! Never came particularly close but with the 300-800f5.6 & 2x conv managed some pleasing photos.........
