I was shocked to see this late osprey fly north over the pool while eating my sandwiches in the southern hide. It was first picked up by volunteer Gareth Batten who said “What’s that bird of prey hovering over the lake?” It flew towards the hide then away to the south.This marginally better shot was taken by Jeff Lack who was sitting with camera hoping for a bittern to come in to view. I took this picture of his camera’s view finder. Pale tips to the wing coverts age this bird as a juvenile. We also saw two goldeneye and the otter (and Jeff later got his bittern).

Well done Jeff! Well we did wish you good luck when we left the hide! 🙂
