Great White Egret

Finally caught up with the Wheldrake Ings Great White Egret this morning. Was sat out in the open for a while before flying off.

There was no sign of it when I was there last night between 1800-2000 but there was 1 Little Egret, 8 Green Sandpiper, 1 Greenshank, 2 Ruff, 6 Snipe, 1 Water Rail, 1 Common Tern and about 8 Grey Heron.

This morning 0820-0830 there was 1 Great White Egret, 1 Little Egret, 6 Grey Heron, 2 Green Sandpiper, 2 Ruff and 3 Snipe. I didn't hang around so highly likely there was other waders about but I got what I wanted and then had to get to work!

A few record shots off my phone below as too far away for camera:
