Slimbridge

At the end of November I took my annual visit to Slimbridge WWT in Gloucestershire, although the forecast was'nt great it actually turned out to be quite a nice day with some lovely afternoon light. As always seems fairly typical of my visits here I just missed out on would have been a lifer after the recently staying Collared Pratincole had flown. Never mind still a good day with great views of the usual species, with Pintail, Teal, Mallard Shelduck,Lapwing,Snipe,Black Tailed Godwit,Avocet, Coot, Common Gull and Woodpigeon all posing nicely.
