Great Bustard

Cloudy with frequent light rain, 7°, light SE.

A trip out to Letcombe Regis this morning to see a Great Bustard.

The bird has been frequenting an area in Letcombe Regis since the weekend and may have been present in South Oxfordshire for a couple of months. Now confirmed as a 1st winter male.

The bird is from the “Great Bustard re-introduction Project” in Wiltshire.

Alan visited the site earlier in the week and today and I have included a couple of his photos here.

Whatever its provenance, still a good bird to see.

More information on the Great Bustard Project can be found here. Great Bustard Project
