Grove Ferry Surprise

Brenda and I visited the valley this morning hoping to catch a view of the Spotted Crake from the viewing ramp and were not to be disappointed obtaining several good scope views as it fed along the back of the flooded area (too distant for the camera unfortunately!)

There were quite a few people present, including Mark Chidwick and Martyn Wilson who fortunately were contacted by someone who had just found a Wryneck along the footpath leading towards a nearby hide, so those gathered all quickly squeezed across the footpath and were rewarded with views of the bird hiding amongst the grass!
