Cattle Egret

Out birding late this afternoon at Darts Farm in Topsham where there was a large finch flock consisting mainly of Common Chaffinch and Common Linnet but in with them was a few European Greenfinch and Goldfinch and 2 female Brambling at least  and as I was stood there looking for them with a fellow birder from Somerset a Cattle Egret took off from the Clyst Marshes and flew right over our heads and flew off over the Darts Farm building at around 3.55pm when it was lost from view .
