Wednesday 7thMay

 A trip up to Slimbridge in Gloucestershire with my mates Ken and Andy to look for the returning Bluethroat that has shown up for a few years now and is from the white spotted race cyanecula . And after a bit of a trek we got nice views of the bird .

Also seen were 2 Little Ringed Plover , 2 male and a female Garganey , Wood Sandpiper , Great White Egret , Glossy Ibis and a couple of Common Crane .

Our next stop was the Ham Wall area in hope of seeing a female Red-Footed Falcon that has been seen there and in the end we got superb views of the bird . Then a quick look at Shapwick Heath got us 4 Booming Great Bittern .
