Seeing a purple heron was brilliant, but watching it catch and eat a mole was amazing. Felt very, very lucky. Gave great views as well. Four Whopper swans, swallow, dunlin, ruff, 4 marsh harriers close together and redshank were other good highlights. Crazy weather though, very atmospheric. oh, chiffchaff and yellowhammers his morning, and a flock of 20 skylark and a close encounter with a Sparrowhawk.
