Pied-billed Grebe and alot of driving
Another good day out birding yesterday with Martin B as we made a long trip to Ham Wall RSPB in Somerset for the Pied-billed Grebe, which is now becoming a bit of a rare . It was Pretty striaght forward though, as we viewed it from the 2rd platform, just a shame it was at the other side of the lake. But a tick is a tick!. We enjoyed some views of a couple of Bittern's in flight and we were on our way home via Moor Green Lakes in Berks for the Pallas's Warbler. A few birders their hadn't seen it and had been there before, so it was nice to pick it up straight away in the over hanging bramble over the river and get all the birders on to it. They are smart little birds. Other birds seen through the day were 6 Red Kite, Kingfisher and loads of Buzzards on the motorway. The down side was only the 390 miles I had to drive......
