As the morning goes on other people turn up & it was nice to see Marco, Nick, Barry, John, plus a few other familiar faces, I always like meeting up with all the people that we see all over the place at different locations it really makes the hobby of bird watching a more pleasant occasion for me.
After a few more hours spent looking I find the bird low in a bush I give a call to the others but it had gone before Jimmy got round to it, so we keep looking & Barry had gone round the other side of the bushes & he calls us round as it had just sat up, when we got there it had gone again, so after a short time we head home with Jimmy only having got a flight view.
So up early this morning to try again to get Jimmy a better view this time, once again some nice people are here looking for the Wryneck, one being Stuart have not seen him for a long time so nice to see him & also got talking to a few faces that we have seem else where.
The target bird shows after a couple of hours & I manage to get my camera somewhere near looking at the bird so a record shot got.
Jimmy had once again missed this view but he's turn came a short time later when he finds it himself to get a really good look as it sits up for a few seconds around the other side of the bushes.
There is a lot of other birds in the area we see many Spotted Flycatcher, Pied Fly, Whinchat, Chiffchaff, Willow warbler, a couple of Wheatear fly over,Whitethroat & Lesser whitethroat are seen all over the place. So a couple of nice days spent here & the added bonus of being only a few miles from home. We must get over here more often.
