Two in Notts, both at Attenborough

This is the 2nd Squacco that I have seen in Notts.  Must be something about Attenborough that they like?  There certainly isn't much there that I like!  I went 3 times to see this bird. The first time the bird was only seen in flight due to a fisherman sitting in it's favourite spot.  There was a slight disagreement between some birders and the angler who's tackle ended up in the river!  tut tut.

I visited again on the Friday after work and then again with Marie on the Saturday.  Got some good views and photos.  The bird was gone by the Sunday so we were very lucky.
