Now when a rare bird arrives in your back yard (Norfolk that is) despite your adverseness to twitching and even though you know there will be hundreds of people there because of the press coverage, you really do feel obliged to have a look. So off to Cley we trot, White-crowned Sparrow (life bird) tick, actually a very nice bird and it must have been truly enthralling to discover. Thank you very much too all those in Cley who are looking after such a rarity on these shores.
From there we moved along the coast with the aim of picking up a Richard’s Pipit at Terrington Marsh (miss it on this occasion) however en-route we saw largish numbers of Ruff, Golden Plover, Curlew, Pink-footed Goose and Lapwing.
Life bird count: 359 Year bird count: 69 Month bird count: 69
