Lodmoor RSPB Reserve

I visited Lodmoor several times during our stay in Weymouth.  The reserve was a ten minutes walk from our accommodation.  Unfortunately the reserve was rather lacking many of the more interesting migrant species due to the calm clear weather conditions.  However there was still plenty to look at.

Little Egret -  There were plenty of these around the reserve. 
This one was actively fishing close to the shelter.

Great White Egret - There were apparently two present on the reserve but they were quite elusive.  This one turned up while I was looking for an even more elusive Glossy Ibis!


Glossy Ibis - On about my 6th attempt I eventually caught up with this bird. 
Unfortunately it was rather distant.

Little Gull - This 2cy bird turned up on our only wet day and sat on this post for several hours.
