Another Distant Bird

Wednesday, January 29

Out to lunch with friends at Salhouse, it seemed obvious to call in to Wroxham Broad on the way home. The pager always reports the bird as being seen 'from the clubhouse' so we started there. The gates are locked, we peered as best we could at the patches of Broad showing through the trees. No luck.
The public car park held one car - and a man peering through a scope at the far end of the water. 
I quickly looked through my binoculars immediately seeing the Slavonian Grebe positively steaming towards the reedy shore. I managed four snatched photos before it disappeared.
The bird was over 200 metres away so all these photos are heavily cropped. One more for the folder. 
It has been ''showing well ''...........
