White was Colour of the Day

A Great White Egret was found by a close friend at Willington Gravel Pits on Saturday 9th July 2016 and a White-winged Black Tern had been present at Rother Valley Country Park near Sheffield, for a couple of days. So, that was Sunday (10th July) morning sorted. Year List moves on to 202

A few studies of the obliging Great White Egret and a couple of record shots of the White-winged Black Tern below.
