Title: Firecrest at South Gare
Post by: Renton Charman on April 23, 2012, 06:23:52 PM
This was a difficult bird to find and even more difficult to photograph. Thanks to the presence of a number of spotters the bird was found in the bushes on the west side near the compound. It was very active, often deep in the bushes, all morning and into the early afternoon, flitting occasionally between the bushes. Lovely bird to see!
