There is only one way to watch/capture a bird like this – sit tight, watch what it's doing and wait! All good things will come and whilst I was never in with a chance of feather detail, I’ll settle for these as it came probably as close as it was comfortable with!
The first shots were reminiscent of another local, much twitched bird!

Before I settled down and waited, eventually it used the telegraph posts I hoped it would?


The closest encounter...

In case you were wondering what it was finding for food, there seemed to a few less Queen wasps hereabouts!

At least that saves me having to give Burrow Hill fort a going over!
