Oystercatcher

Lovely morning at Pennington flash :) there was a very confident oystercatcher moving around amongst the ducks and geese. Whilst I was taking photos of him a lady informed me that apparently he had been hand reared! Explained why he wasn't that concerned by either us or the cocky geese!
Spotted the usual kingfisher too but this time not at a hide, took the walk down to see the grebes and he flew around the water then up over the trees! No chance of a photo but it was a lovely view of one!
A pair of snipe showed up in the distance at the last hide we stopped at
