Glossy Ibis

Stuart Warren discovered the second Glossy Ibis for Bedfordshire. The bird was still present, for its third day, but was distant, and, with a very blustery wind, nothing good was obtained with the camera.

Glossy Ibis: Cambridgeshire

Plenty of images around at the moment of the recent Glossy Ibis bonanza. However, starved as we are of them in Bedfordshire, combined with the pull of Buff-breasted Sandpiper on the same pit, it was a late afternoon hop over the border to Diddlington pit, near Little Paxton, Cambs, to see one. The sandpiper was too far for the 400mm, but the ibis was down to c.20m albeit in low light. Images were 1/80th - 1/100th sec hand held !!
