Many thanks to Jim Parry for these fantastic photos of a fine Spotted Crake he photographed at Malltraeth Marsh RSPB reserve recently. Also thanks to Ian Hawkins for passing them on and filling us in on other recent news at Malltraeth.
Hi Steve,
I’ve just received these photos of a spotted crake taken at
Malltraeth Marsh, on 30th July. It was seen and photographed by Jim
Parry. He initially thought it was a young water rail. I’ve asked him and he is
happy for you to include the photos in the bird report if you want
to.
Record details are: found 30th July, Jim Parry
sole observer, at Malltraeth Marsh RSPB Reserve, grid reference SH462 726.
Photographed with a digiscope.
Fair few waders around at the moment (Ruff, greensand,
black-wit, greenshank. And Nigel Brown saw a wood sand on 4th) and a
juvenile marsh harrier.
Cheers
Ian
