Gull-billed Tern at Minsmere

On Sunday 31st May, having been woken at 4.20am up by Andrew's tweet that the GBT was still at Minsmere, I left and arrived at Minsmere at 6am. I saw Andrew walking down the path and I doubled back to view from Whin Hill, where I could see the fine Gull- billed Tern flying around the Island Mere. There were also a couple of Bittern flying too. TBC 1st year Little Gull close by the bund Roseate tern then the pair of Roseate Terns seen by the 2nd bund from the left as viewed from the public hide, heard Gropper but disappeared 20 seconds before I arrived by the bench along the boardwalk. I then went into deepest Suffolk and found 2 fine Greater Butterfly Orchids plus a Red- legged Partridge crouching very close under branches. TBC & PTBA
