Otmoor 22nd April: White Stork

Dave Hammant saw & photographed a White Stork flying over Otmoor this afternoon between 15:25 and 15:35. It was circling at some altitude. It circled above Otmoor for maybe fifteen minutes before heading of north east and ascending.

Perhaps the same bird that was reported on RBA in Hertfordshire at around 17:45 this evening.

    I watched this bird over Otmoor at 15.30 from the north screen. It was flying high to the south-west of the Beckley transmitter and disappeared in that direction. Dave showed me his photos shortly afterwards (he was in the south screen) and I'm sure it was the same bird.

    There has been one seen near Newport, South Wales a few days back.... just a short thermal glide away ?
