Before the FA Cup Semi-Final I zoomed up to Ham Wall RSPB in the hope to see the Glossy Ibises that were seen yesterday and earlier in the morning. However, it was a wasted journey as they had flown by the time I arrived. Two Lapwings flew over, as did a Little Egret and a Bittern was booming.
A quick walk out to the partially drained lagoon at Meare Heath produced a Great White Egret showing extremely well. A further three Lapwings, two Redshank and half a dozen Black-tailed Godwits were also present.
I got home in time for the match, but after a disappointing result and some shocking referee decisions, I should have stayed out birding!
