Bee eater lifer # 303

An outrageous stroke of luck on a business trip back from Coniston gave me the opportunity to twitch a lifer on a Wednesday afternoon! 4 present BEE EATER who may be nesting soon at East Leake Quarry near Loughborough. 24 hour guards in place to ensure its kept safe. It was THE easiest and best organised twitch I've ever had! Many thanks to Carl for the detour back to see it.
