    I left my wellies at home foolishly as the sun was shining and we had no rain for a couple of days thought it might be more accessible today - I managed a couple of weeks ago to get thro the water but the stretch today was just too much to handle with my trolley

    Went there today Ann, the path is now dry but the lake is still flooded. The feeder area is very muddy but he water rail did put in a couple of appearances.
    I did post a pic of the Bittern at Lavells.

    Ann, the Bitterns have now gone from Lavell's and Barnes, it's that time of year.
