One of the four otters, probably a family group, running around on (and off) the ice yesterday at #RSPBOuseFen

Despite 5 heron species being on site at #fendraytonlakes, it is rare to see them all on the same day. Very nice when it happens though! Bonus glossy ibis is good too. I wonder what the next regular long-legged species will be... (photos not all taken today)

Over the past 4 and a bit years at #fendraytonlakes I have had the pleasure of seeing plenty of bittern, but never anything like as well as this view today @CambsBirdClub

I've put off joining for around 10 years, but finally decided that it's about time I joined up. #myfirsttweet #resistanceisfutile
