At last...the Red Necked Grebe is within range.

...that is, from the Pagham Spit side of the harbour. Up until now it has been residing mostly on the Church Norton side of the harbour but this morning it was feeding in he main channel and although it wasn't ultra close it was just about in photographic range. Here are a few images... I will take a longer lens later and hopefully obtain some better photographs but this is a bird that has eluded me for some while, so it was pleasing to obtain these shots this morning.

Nice bird...hopefully it will will remain in the main channel for a few more days and give even better opportunity for some decent photos.
