Local Bird of the Year? Stone Curlew

 






Early bird gets the worm! At 7am, my friend Hugh Wright casually posted on our local birding WhatsApp group that he had found a Stone Curlew at Etton & Maxey Pits. An absolute mega record, with perhaps just one confirmed local sighting previously. It remained all day, and I enjoyed some exceptional views of this fantastic bird yesterday evening.
