More species at Snettisham

It would have been lovely to have seen some Avocet close enough to have photographed them, but the highlight was seeing some Egyptian Geese, two of them with a gosling, which I had never seen before!   The surprise was seeing the two adult Egyptian Geese which appeared to be the parents, having a spat.   Also, on a level with a Black-headed Gull, and what I assume was an albino Mallard.


Dawn on Easter Day

It was a special time being at Snettisham for dawn on Sunday.    No sun to see, but Knot and Oystercatchers 'swooshed' overhead as the high tide denied them feeding grounds for a few hours.    The waders came over in their tens of thousands - there were some wardens undertaking a count!
