Avocet
Ruff
Some distant Black-Tailed Godwit
We wandered down to the sea and here you can see Dave the Seasoned sea watcher at work
Aw cute!
There wasn't much off the Sea just Common and Sandwich Tern and some Eider duck.
it started to rain!!! So we headed to Sculthorpe Moor lots of birds but not the elusive Willow Tit. Saw some Marsh Tits.
Chaffinch
And a vole! Not a bad day for mammals as we saw a Stoat earlier
We were advised that the Hour Glass at Sculthorpe was worth a look for lunch and so as it was raining......
It lacked a bit of character but the food was good (Dave finally getting the crab he had wanted) and the staff friendly and helpful.
So about 2pm we wandered off and as it was still raining we decided to call it a day.
An enjoyable day in convivial company.
