White-spotted Bluethroat (Luscinia svecica cyanecula) was the star of the morning - fantastic views of this smart male. Fabulous and uplifting to see. Even the elegant Black-winged Stilt and Avocet couldn't match it!

The rather splendid Bewick Swan - good looking and a long distance winter migrant to the UK. The Ross's Goose is still at Slimbridge with its soft, delicate face.

One of the Daves and I made the trip up the M5 today to WWT Slimbridge. We had a great day out and saw 46 species of birds including Common Crane, White-fronted Goose, Bewick Swan and the White-rumped Sandpiper (a rare visitor to the UK).
