Limpenhoe Cattle Egret - closer and better! And Slavonian Grebes at Rollesby

In the hope of connecting with the long-staying Ouzel at Limpenhoe I made breakfast early and left home in time to be on site by 8.00am. A good walk around the local bridle ways and a bit of patience eventually gave me much better views of the Cattle Egret, as well as large flock of Fieldfares and a Swallow - but no Ouzel!

I moved on to Rollesby Broad where the pair of summer-plumaged Slavonian Grebes were distantly viewable, looking north from the roadside. With a telescope they were real stunners!
