Glossy Ibis reported again this morning at 07:27, also 2 Spoonbills and a GW Egret.
Saw the GWE from the Quantock View Hide and the 2 Spoonbills (on the far eastern pool of Otterhampton Marsh) but didn’t see the Glossy Ibis 10:00 to 11:30. Then a distant ‘scope check over Stockland Marsh from high ground by the church saw at least 40 Blk-t Godwits here.

Is the ibis likely to be the one from chard reservoir, or another?

Per Brian Gibbs on Twitter: Glossy Ibis and two Spoonbills again at Steart Marshes this morning.
The Glossy Ibis was out from the Quantock View hide looking towards Stockland Bristol and the two Spoonbills were on the pools at the extreme eastern end of Otterhampton Marsh best seen from the Parrett bank.
