David P Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Not Supra owners with post adrenaline twitch, I refer to bird watchers of the feathered variety. This afternoon during a couple of hours chub fishing, a White Egret landed right next to me and was quite happy with his fishing until I tried to take his photograph, the start up bleep sent him packing. Seen plenty of these on the Continent, yet this is the first one I have seen here in U.K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animal Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Egrets? I've had a few, but then again, too few to mention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snooze Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 lol Little egrets are becoming quite a common sight in the UK now. Especially down in the south - Kent, Essex, Devon get loads. They were a real rarity twenty years ago, but flocks of 20 or more birds are becoming not unusual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
