On Sunday there was a report of a Great White Egret at Chatsworth which is the first record I can recall from this area. Given the exponential increase in the population in the south of the country and their gradual spread northwards its a bird that we can expect to see more of in the future. Anyway, no sign this morning, but I did just catch a group of Red Deer crossing the Derwent which is always nice to see. The Great Grey Shrike was still on the moors this afternoon at the northern end of Flash Lane but otherwise a rather dull, grey day.
