GREAT WHITE EGRET-SANDBACH FLASHES

This afternoon, I visited Sandbach Flashes with my mother after a spot of shopping. The long-staying Great White Egret was still present on Elton Hall Flash, though it remained on the far side of the water, offering distant but clear views.

Other notable birds on the site included Common and Green Sandpipers, Ringed Plover, and Curlew, making for a pleasant and rewarding afternoon’s birding.
