Comments : | 3 Hobbies at ECNR today. Spent most of the time perched on snags on the edge of the woodland, west of the woodland hide. Usually only one bird visible. Several time during the late morning they flew around a bit, giving spectacular views on one occasion as all 3 flew low past the main hide at 12:35. | ||||||||||
