Norfolk - is this Summer??

There I was - wearing layers, fleece, jacket, gloves yet still freezing in the grip of a stiff Northerly breeze - it was not a day for hanging about!! The Honey Buzzards at Swanton Nover evidently thought so too and remained grounded for the morning (and afternoon)!!


The day ended at Cley, the usual assortment of waders on the scrape.....






An obliging Little Egret,






The Gull roost included a few Yellow legged.....






and more Marsh Harriers! I noticed a family group 'food passing' (if you look closely - oops missed it!!) near the roadside. The juvenile seemed quite confiding....










Now that could be worth a look first thing tomorrow??
