Back at Rutland.

After a few weeks away I returned to Rutland this week and headed out for a walk around.

Got a welcome surprise back from a Great white egret who was feeding near to a hide.







Plenty of Little egrets around must have counted over 20 around the reserve on Monday.




Over on lagoon 3 Green sandpipers can be seen quite  regular and they even come quite close to the hides.


As I was heading back today a bird caught my eye, unfortunately the sun was directly behind it turning it into a silhouette. I had a feeling it was a Spotted redshank before it flew around the corner. So a quick run to the next hide and sure enough he landed on the waters edge near the next hide.
