A beautiful morning at Eccleston Mere. This was the first time I have seen the Water Rail for a couple of weeks, and it was touch and go today. I arrived at its favoured spot seconds before 2 dog walkers came right up to me and asked in loud voices, "have you seen much today?" as their dogs disappeared down the ditch. The Water Rail scurried away to safety and I was left to explain what it looked like.
Grey Wagtail.
