Red Kite but no Rosy Pastor

Earlier in the week I finally bagged a Red Kite for my Notts yearlist; I was visiting Cotham Landfill for work, and had one cruise overhead as I pulled into the site. It then showed well for the next 10 minutes or so at least.

Less fortuitous was the circumstances surrounding the Rose-coloured Starling in Cotgrave. I couldn't go the night it was found, so visited the following morning before work. There was no sign of it, and only a few of us looking. Poor old Jason Reece was one of them, having missed it by 10 minutes the night before due to cooking duties...
