Many thanks Dave. Just watched your "New Life at Belvide" May 2023. Very good, especially liked seeing the juv Oystercatchers.

Many thanks Dave. It was a very muddy 200 mtrs field-walk, the deep mud coming over our walking boots & my wife unsteady on her walking stick!

Certainly is, such a superb small gull!

South on A38, just before Huntspill River bridge right turn onto service rd that parallels the Huntspill, cross over Sloway Lane (ignoring no public access) & continue on service rd to Huntspill Sluice, where road turns sharply right, then in 200 yds park in pull-in on right. Walk across rd and up on to grass seawall to view the Estuary. Then drive further north on service rd until it turns sharp right (towards sewage works) park carefully on left & walk up track over grass seawall for access to small pools between the grass seawall & the concrete seawall.

Thanks Dave, gladyou liked it.

Thanks Dave, they have been so good to watch.

Many thanks Dave, so pleased you liked it. Of the 3 egret species on The Levels, they are by far the most numerous, but in really hard winter when the ground is frozen for some time, they almost disapear. Going back to France/Spain we suspose?

Thanks. And most unusual in breeding plumage the UK side of the Atlantic.

Many thanks Gijs. Glad you liked it.

Thanks a lot, and wishing happy birding for you too!

Thank you. Looks as if KZbin didn't set it to HD (1080p) which I have now done so. Don't take 4K as my old processing software struggles with it.

Many thanks Dave, so pleased you liked it. My longest yet: 15 hrs of editing.

Many thanks Dave. It was a lot of visits but as I live just a 15-min drive away it was a pleasure to watch them.

Yes, Cetti's are common in suitable habitat on the Somerset Levels. GW Egrets 1st bred in 2012 and are now wide-spread across the Levels, c.90 nests this year! Cattle Egrets have found it to their liking having 1st bred in 2008 (1st for UK) and now number c.450 in winter counts.

Many thanks Dave, much appreciated! It took me 9hrs to edit it into the final film.

Thanks Dave, There were 3 in the UK at the beginning of June - quite exceptional!

And a Big Thank You for your kind comment Sandip.

Thank you Dave, and sorry for my late reply!

Thanks Dave, the only one I've ever seen in summer plumage, and I've been lucky to see 6 in the UK.

Thanks Dave, only the 4th record for Somerset I believe, and just 15mins drive from my house.

Many thanks Dave. Yes, Somerset has some excellent habitat and Weymouth & Portland Bill in Dorset is approx 1.25 hrs drive from my house.

Thanks a lot for your comment!

Many thanks for your kind comments Dave, much appreciated !!

Thanks Dave. If only the lens on my Nikon P950 wasn't subject to slight tremors when fully extended, due to sudden wind gusts.. But has to be a slight clearance fit in the body housing!

Thanks very much!
