Spotted Flycatcher and Glossy Ibis.

Called into Marshside this afternoon just as the rain came down very heavy. Reports of a Glossy Ibis had been around so had to go for a look with it being so close.

I was not disappointed it was found within minutes and showing well despite the rain and dull conditions. ( it was superb sunshine 10 mins before I got there)




Quite a few Wheatear around the old sand works and what looked to be a Rock pipit but I was to far away to 100% id and lost it around a mound of sand.

On the way back to the car I got a surprise as Spotted flycatcher appeared from a bush It was a little far away so grabbed a few record shots, just as well because a dog walker appeared over the sand mounds with 2 dogs running lose and bye bye flycatcher.
