Norfolk – The Broads – 21st February 2010

After our walk around Strumpshaw we headed off east and stopped over at Cantley but the visibility was so bad it was impossible to make out the Bean Geese. We however were rewarded passing through the marshes at Halvergate when a Hen Harrier passed over. Then further south around Haddiscoe we saw Rough-legged Buzzard being mobbed by some crows and in the field plenty of thrushes, mainly Fieldfare & Mistle, also, in the distance, over 100 feeding Pink-footed Geese.
Life bird count: 389 Year bird count: 114 Month bird count: 80
