Wondering what to do Thursday afternoon had a text from Don of an alpine swift seen at Ivinghoe Beacon and more ring ouzels there, so decided to give it another visit. Could see a long way but no sign of alpine swift and again couldn't find any ring ouzels after a good search but did come across another fine looking meadow pipit.
Called into College Lake on way home and into the octagon hide where others were looking to see what's about. Soon after they had left I spotted a yellow wagtail had flown in and was bathing a short distance away and then it flew towards us.
Landed in front of the hide and with a pied wagtail started feeding and walking towards the hide.A perfect view of this breeding summer visitor which winters in Africa.Stewart. Images Copyright : Stewart Dennis.
