Taken at the water treatment works at Kidwelly on the 09-01-12.

Not a very good image I'm afraid, but it was the best I could get under the circumstances (cloudy)

I'd settle for it! Never had the pleasure of seeing one.

Thanks you Graham, this particular one has been in the area for a few weeks but it still took three of us most of the day to find it and eventually get a shot.
