Saturday we had a great day out with friends from Derby at Minsmere, started by showing them the Birds nest Fungi on the pond boardwalk, Only 2 left now so unless there is another area for this fabulous fungi i fear it wont last.
Nipped up onto the wildlife lookout platform for the male and female Smew.

Nipped around to the Sand Martin bank to find 3 Adders a Normal one copper one and the famous Black Adder. Only one worth a picture.
Onto North hide where i managed to find us Common and Jack Snipe. A Great White Egret made a flypast.
Around to the Sea and East Hide 100 Common Scoter in the Sea and cracking Med Gulls on the Scrape.
