Pleasant stroll out with the kids at Marbury in very spring like weather. Nice to bump into old pal James Andrewes and his kids as they were bittern hunting. Happily the kids ran about in the woods whilst James and I chewed the fat. Eventually the bittern put in an appearance, at around 5.30, but quite obscured. A fine male goosander was also present and a redhead flew through. That aside, 1 little egret, 3 oystercatchers, curlew and 250 lapwing were the highlights.
