Great-white Egret

There has been a Great-white Egret on the River Welland along the Deeping High Bank, usually east of Crowland bridge and water tower, for about 2 weeks (seems to have been reported first on Bird Guides on 2nd Sept). I caught up with it a couple of hundred metres east of Crowland Bridge yesterday afternoon and took a few video clips of it fishing. It seemed to be doing rather well! It caught mostly quite small fish fairly constatntly, every few minutes, during the 10 or 15 minutes I was watching. I took some video clips using my mobile phone mounted on the telescope.
