Up at 3am and off to #SomersetLevels to count #BoomingBitterns! 5 bitterns booming in our patch! Clear skies and chilly start. A perfect spring morning! And, a few swallows spotted on the drive home!💚

For #WorldWetlandsDay I have been so lucky to get to know the #SomersetLevels in the last few years by leading group visits and surveying wildlife such as: booming bitterns, bearded reedlings and snipe! Such a unique & vital ecosystem!💚

A rather chilly looking grey heron. A great time of year to photograph birds if you can suffer the cold!

Great White Egret caught just as it hopped across the water chasing after fish. I can't resist photographing these elegant birds, which have recently (since 2012) colonised the Somerset Levels and are now spreading across the UK. Shot at RSPB Ham Wall.
