As regular (with nothing new to chase!) Brian, Norman and I headed north for a morning’s birding. First cease was Salthouse, the place the stroll out to Gramborough Hill was kind of fruitless – only a few juvenile Stonechats.
We moved to Cley, beginning at Bishop’s with distant views of two Little Stints earlier than carrying on to the Central Hides. Right here we have been rewarded with shut views of Inexperienced and Widespread Sandpipers in addition to a number of household teams of Little Ringed Plovers.
After espresso and scones we walked the East Financial institution, including 5 distant Spoonbills on Pope’s and two Wooden Sandpipers on the Serpentine: a distant Purple Kite was the one one of many day.
Strolling again to the automotive we stopped at Snipe’s Masrsh, the place 4 extra Inexperienced Sandpipers fed busily among the many Mare’s Tail.
