Yellow Wagtail and Great Whie Egret

Went over to Burton Mere in hope of the Black-winged pratincole but no sign when I arrived. Still some interesting birds to see including lots of Black-tailed Godwits, Avocets, hundreds of sand, house martins swift and swallows and a White wagtail. Best birds though was a rather smart looking Yellow wagtail and a Great White Egret  being mobbed by Lapwings.  And yes the picture quality is rubbish as the birds were distant and had to be digiscoped!
