At last the Norfolk coast is seeing some migrants with sightings of
Black Redstarts,
Redstarts,
Whimbrel and more common migrants such as
Willow Warbler,
Whitethroat,
Lesser Whitethroat being reported all along the coast. Still some
Ring Ouzels present. Also last week good numbers of
Yellow Wagtails.
The One Stop Nature Shop guided walk on saturday turned up seven
Common Cranes and two
Mediterranean Gulls at Deepdale Marsh. And last night a
Montagu's Harrier (this a heavily cropped picture).
The fields behind the shop have many active
Hares and when the sun is out they can be seen zooming across the fields and occasionally boxing.
Gardens in Brancaster and Stanhoe still have a few
Bramblings
and
Lesser Redpoll
Swallows are now on the wires outside the shop. As ever we keep the sightings board outside the shop constantly updated with local bird news.
