Cambois again first this morning, at a different area that Roger told me about, and Grayling were easy! I’ll go back to there.
Next, me and Alan head north to Cresswell, firstly to the village, where we have a look at the sea behind the ice cream shop, this gives us three Arctic Skua in the bay and then on to the pond, where we spend some time chewing the cud with Alan. An Avocet just being visible on the other side of the pool.
Onwards to Druridge and a brief Dark Green Fritillary, no Wood Sandpiper but a Green Sandpiper and two juvenile Yellow Wagtail.
Next Chevington, where we spend time chewing the cud with Alan (that’s a different Alan!) The male Marsh Harrier put in a couple of appearance's and on the second, a youngster took a wobbly flight and got the food.
Still heading north we stopped at Foxton, where we had Little Egret, four Common Sandpiper, Greenshank and four Goosander. Boulmer was quiet, probably because there was a bloke hauling his jet ski up the beach!
And finally the Long Nanny. Dark Green Fritillary are the target here, but it takes a while before we find any. While we were looking we had Common Blue…
…and Small Heath…
and then the target
A visit to the tern colony gave us a lot of Arctic Tern and a handful of Little Tern, and on the walk back, another Little Egret on the river.
