Driving home from Salisbury this afternoon my wife asked if I fancied stopping at Langford Lakes nature reserve for a Shag. Turns out there were lots of other species too. Sadly due to the recent flooding there was too much water for the waders and a lot of the waterfowl were at extreme range. Highlight was watching a Marsh Harrier hunting Lapwing, sadly too far away to photograph, but the light was great for what did come within range.
The promised Shag (calm down, I know it's a Cormorant):

Robin (I'd be interested in you thoughts as to which you prefer; facing left, facing right, or landscape?):
