Cattle Egret at Breydon

Also on Saturday 16th, around late lunchtime, following a tip off from John h he had just relocated the Cattle Egret with the Horses in a field just before the farmI drove over to Breydon South wall car park and walked south along the estuary path towards the farm, I found the aforementioned field just before the farm but the only Egret I saw initially was a Little Egret walking in the ditch and around the south- east corner. A male Reed Bunting flew up and over the pathway and briefly settled on a close reed. I could hear shooting on marshes just east of the farm and then I saw it, the excellent Cattle Egret was in a ditch in a field immediately south of the farm near the path, but it then flew east and out of sight.
