    The RSPB say it is likely the rare visitors to the UK will nest at the quarry in Nottinghamshire.

      About 5 miles from me considerate little blighters.

      If they are coming this far North, it has to open up possibilities further South Stan

          Generally get a few sightings in Kent every summer. I believe they have had some nesting on the Isle of Wight In recent years.
