User's notes
Photos are from December 2019 that I only just rediscovered on my phone. The photos are of a very bad quality as they were taken with a phone through binoculars. The binoculars distorted the light somewhat so the second image has a strange background. The bird was in a small clump of reeds to the left of the red bridge.
