Good set of photos Ed.

Great shot of the less common dark morph.

Great shots Si.

This is the bird that I saw earlier from the same hide Brian. I think this is a juvenile Little Bittern. I made the assumption, erroneously, that it was the same bird that had relocated. 😆

🙄 Thanks Brian.

Nice one Anders

Hartsop Dodd?

And there's me thinking they like sunny, warm conditions! Very early too. On which fells did you see the colony, if I may ask?

Nice photo Craig. Was this at White Sheet Hill?

Come the Autumn, when Winter is looming, negotiations should be easier. 😉

A walk down the East track very early might be your best bet in future trips.

Let me guess - Ortolan and Rüppell's. A Semi-collared was quite a find. Not seen one in two visits.
