Cley Marshes 5 Little Egret 2 Spotted Redshank 3 Marsh Harrier 1 female Merlin(observed chasing and catching a Skylark,after a 10 minute pursuit). Salthouse 80 Snow Bunting 2 Lapland Bunting(This flock of buntings has to be seen to be believed,Snow Bunting down to 5 feet,Lap Bunt down to 10 feet,truly amazing). male and female Stonechat. Horsey wind pump 9 Common Crane(6 observed in flight,and 3 watched feeding on the fresh marsh,super birds.
