I see that Somerset has missed out on the first confirmed breeding of a Glossy Ibis in the UK. That accolade has gone to a Cambridgeshire wetland according to a recent report by the Rare Breeding Birds Panel (RBBP).

Adult Glossy Ibis feeding on wet roadside field along Westhay Moor Drove, c.200m east of Westhay Moor NNR car park, 10:30 to 11:30 this morning. If disturbed by fast passing traffic flew up to perch in nearby tree, then came back to feed when all was quiet.
