fantastic catch, a brilliant photo as well.

I hear them a lot on most nature reserves but very rarely see them. Best I’ve managed is a photo of one’s bum!

A couple more shots of the Wheatear, it was getting blown about in the strong gusts so it had to stabilise with his tail.

Following the Wheatear down the beach we were in for one last treat.

We stopped to watch him hop around in some scrubby shingle. I knelt down just as he hopped out the side of some vegetation and settled on a large stone about 3m in front of me!

It was amazing to see him right in front of me.

morning fella, I understand and it’s made us think twice about seeing anything that rare that appears in Norfolk in future.

That’s a shame about the weather but I think it’s supposed to blow through about lunch time and turn to patchy sun.

If you get time, go to the beach at Cley. The Desert Wheatear thats been at the beach fence (52.964466, 1.053301) for a week or so is showing really well, he doesn’t care about people at all! I’ll post some pics later today.

We weren’t going to go back after seeing such bad behaviour but yesterday it was being tagged in an open area of common land so there was a lot more space for everyone.

There were a lot more young birders there as well, it was great helping them out and seeing them getting their own photos of the Nutcracker!

agreed, is this related to the article I saw saying Anglian Water wants to open two new reservoirs by 2030. I’ve not seen a proposed location but I’d be excited to visit for the reasons you mentioned.

It’ll be a bit barren to start with but the biodiversity will develop, I’d expect a lot of migrating geese etc. would be pretty happy it existed.

Back in April we visited Mayday Farm, it’s near Brandon and right in the middle of a big pine forest.

There’s a tiny pond hidden at the base of a tree, it’s got a liner and it’s about 2m wide. It’s popular with photographers as lots of birds come in to drink and bathe.

The first of two lifers I saw was this Crossbill.

Back in February we visited a new spot not too far from home. A little reserve called North Cove in Suffolk, it’s a lovely site with a few paths making a circular walk as well as a few hides.

There was plenty of bird life even for February, Pheasants were pecking about outside the woodland hide.

Back in January we found out a Black-Bellied Dipper had been sighted at Bintree Mill, about 30 mins from home. A Dipper, in Norfolk!

We headed out in the cold and snow to take a look, see if we could see it. It was very cold so we only lasted about an hour. It was just long enough to catch a glimpse, to see the white bib but not enough to raise my camera before it was gone.

Also around the mill and river area including under the bridge was a Snipe, a Marsh Harrier and the little Wren below.

A couple of weeks ago we headed up to Sheringham on the North Norfolk coast. It was very cold but local birders were reporting a rare visitor.

The Eastern Black Redstart. When we saw it the Redstart was favouring the windowsills of a block of flats and a small neighbouring building site, not the best background but some clear views.

While we were waiting and searching with the other birders, a large black SUV pulled up and three fellas hopped out who had just arrived from northern Wales!

eBird users are still tagging it there even today if you want to find it.

The Common Cranes at NWT Hickling Broad, July 2025.

One flew off for a little while but returned, they displayed to each other when reunited.

From where we started we could see a pair of juvenile Yellow Wagtail exploring up on the main hide roof.

Edit: it’s a Yellow Wagtail, not a Grey Wagtail
