Regardless of the lower than promising climate forecast, Brian, Norman and I left early and sped via the gloom to Cley. Just a few Snipe have been in entrance of Bishop’s, however that was about it, so we determined to drive westwards to go to Bayfield Lake. The drake Goosander was somewhat distant, however good to look at, whereas a few White-fronted Geese have been tougher to select! After espresso we moved on to Stiffkey: within the flooded fields by the facet of the highway we discovered two Shiny Ibises and a lonesome Cattle Egret – the primary of the Egret Trio we collected in the course of the day! Final cease was Burnham Overy, the place a longish stroll finally gave us distant views of a Crimson-necked Grebe – the second of the 12 months.
