Nice work on the Egret
I wonder if the Wren is picking of Grass Bugs these Mirids will ascend the stems and are easy picking , for a keen Wren ?
Little Egret is a great record and the ring is very interesting,could you get anything on it.?? There have been a couple of records of Little Egret at CB...
Thanks guys sorry Andy have tried but its just too far away.gwh
shame about the legring, good record for the reserve. Great white next?!
I remember two Little Egrets together at the Lillands in April or May 2003 but that's out of the reserve, half way down to Brighouse, if that's the couple Andy is referring to?
So, unless Andy remembers others, yours might be the first record for the reserve . . . ?
Well done Graham in any case.
Good work Graham.
The first 2 little egrets in Calderdale were seen circling above Cromwell Bottom 5th may 2003,they eventually settled at lilliands ponds.in 2008 1 flew west over Cromwell Bottom 17th May and 2 flew west along Elland wood Bottom 21st July 2008,so Grahams bird was the first one to be seen on the ground at CB.: ))
