Had a choice of rarities a Little Swift in Cheshire or a Pacific Golden Plover at Cley
In the end decided on Cley as the prospect of the supporting cast was more appealing if the stars failed to show
Was at Cley shortly after 06:00 this morning despite some fog in Norfolk
The plover showed well from the north scrape which is the one nearest the sea. Park at the beach car-park
Also on show was a Sacred Ibis (I wonder if this is the same one I saw over Thurlby a few weeks ago)
Bearded Tit showed well at times
4 Spoonbill and 1 at Titchwell
At least 4 Marsh Harriers
Spotted Redshank with another 6 at Titchwell
Cettis Warblers 2 with another one by the visitor centre at Titchwell
Little Gull at both reserves
8 Gannets and an excellent selection of waders over the two reserves
Both Bar & Black Tailed Godwits
Dunlin
Knot 1000
Avocet inevitably
Ringed & Little Ringed Plover
Curlew
Redshank
All in all it was a good day with one lifer and two new birds for the year
