Re: Great Bustard, Westhay Village

The bird was not present at 19:45 this evening, clearly moving about so worth keeping an eye out for in the local area.

Re: Great Bustard, Westhay Village

This enormous beast flew right across Noah's Lake at around 16:05 today, providing the unexpected highlight of a good day on the Levels, including, across the area, a pair of Great White Egret, 5 pairs of Little Egret at a small heronry and a good number of Marsh Harriers, predominantly males, at 3 sites.

Presumably the same bird at the west end of Westbury Moor this pm (per Dave Buckingham)

Great Bustard seen in Godney today approx. 11.30am two fields down from the pub on the opposite side of the road.

Looked for without success this morning and spent a fruitless hour touring around and checking most of the large roadside fields between here and Westhay Moor.
