OSPREY

Even though we get them every year, there's something very impressive about seeing an Osprey fishing in a small estuary. Thanks must go to a visitor (Martin) for getting the news out after another visitor told him there'd been an Osprey (our first of the autumn here) fishing on the river at around 12:30. It put in a couple more appearances in the afternoon, fishing at 16:45 and then fishing again at 17:15; it caught a very small fish in the first instance so came back for another!

There was a Barwit on the estuary mid-morning and also a Little Stint, in front of Tower Hide at around 18:00.










The Sun and colour of the sky looked stunning for a couple of minutes as the evening wore on so I risked a couple of shots (not good for cameras if done for too long).
