Fen Drayton

Glossy IbisA lovely afternoon so took the opportunity to try again for the Glossy Ibis at Fen Drayton. This time I was successful, though it wasn’t on the pit it was reported on (though did fly back there later). Also, a couple of Oystercatchers, and hundreds (thousands, I’ve no idea?) of Wigeon.
