Norman’s flip to drive: we headed south-east to Westleton Heath, the place – after a false begin – Norman shortly situated the long-staying Iberian Chiffchaff. It took a little bit of time to get respectable photographs, nevertheless it was calling incessantly, so, with a little bit persistence, we each managed good views. The primary of three Nightingales was calling from the automotive park: none of which surrendered for a photograph!
Minsmere was a little bit of a slog, leading to a number of yr ticks (two species of Tern, Whitethroat and so forth) and a considerably shy Bittern, however the veggie sausage bap was an appropriate reward! A male Ring Ouzel was fleeting, however very welcome! We moved on to the Quarry on the heath, the place two extra Nightingales, two Cuckoos, Chiffchaff, Willow Warbler, Stonechat and Woodlark had been the most effective we managed.
