Cold and windy but some great photo opportunities today; not only from the Beardies (another video from Peter Fallan here http://gallery.me.com/peterfallan/100799 ) which are still around but also from Snipe in front of the hide, a showy Water Rail, the immature male Marsh Harrier and a very dinky, very late Northern Wheatear.

That should be enough photos to see you through for a few days...
