Anglers CP: A GREAT WHITE EGRET gave great, close views as it flew over the lake and Vis Mig hill, going south, at 08.42hrs. Only the 4th record for this site. We shared the news immediately so we could track its progress. The bird must have doubled back because by 08.50hrs it was picked up flying west at Pugneys. (Chris Nickerson). Around 10ish it landed on Wath Ings, then seen flying to Bolton Ings around 12 ish. Later at Adwick, it was seen flying towards Denaby Ings. (Ken Foundation).
