No show for 1.5 hrs mid-morning, then flushed by Marsh Harrier and relocated feeding in open marshy area between the two platforms. Walk east from 1st platform and cross over new footbridge, then continue east along canal bank to just after wooden-seat and bird was viewable on the left at 12:25 hrs.
Ibis seen at midday dropping into pools to the west of path leading to new hide. After a few minutes lifted and flew east to the open water area to the left of VP2. Was not spotted again until it took off again and headed a short distance west behind the trees. After some diligent searching by a fellow bird photographer it was located in a small bay some 25 yards from the path running along the north bank of the South Drain between VP2 and the new bridge. Excellent views were obtained by the 6 people there.
