BLIMEY THE KITTIWAKE WAS STILL THERE.


I hadn't planned to go with the camera today but when,as lunchtime approached,I saw that it was a bit warmer and quite bright I set off to Shustoke Reservoir where several local birders had got some cracking shots of a Kittiwake over the weekend. I was hoping it was still there but usually whenever I leave it too late the bird I'm after has long gone.

I was not very confident as I walked from the car park to the west end of the reservoir as I could see only one birder in the distance.Just when I was approaching the birder who was checking something out on the water I spotted the Kittiwake not too far out.A very nice local patch tick and a very nice bird which I believe is a second winter bird.
