    Such elegant birds. How excited we'd have been to see these a few decades ago. Cattle Egrets seem to be getting much more numerous along the Ouse Washes too.

      Thanks John. A Cattle Egret would be good, if they came to visit.

    nice! we don't often get Great White's here! I haven't been to Lodmoor and Radipole in years! Are the Cetti's still as showy?
