Evening visit to Minsmere

We decided to give Minsmere a look on Thursday evening, a Bittern was showing in front of the Bittern hide, he never came out in the open, fished and preened half hidden.
 
 

Waited for an hour but he never emerged from the reeds, so decided to join my mates on a tour of the hides, the Sun was very bright and when it got low it gave a warm glow to the birds, on the way to East hide spotted a young Swallow perched in the full setting sun near the sluice.
 
 
Then some great looking Black Tailed Godwits in breeding plumage glowing in the setting sun!
