More Snow Buntings here at the 'gap' and this flock had a single Lapland Bunting in tow... A quest for YBW in the woods failed to produce but a Firecrest made the walk worthwhile?
The afternoon took in the Brancaster / Docking area checking out the Pink feet - there were 1,000s and 1,000s! Quite an amazing sight.....

Deafening at take off!!

Hello, hello, hello what did we also have here? A genuine Snow Goose? (The one pictured was present at Salthouse). I can sense the list police looming but who can say - notebook out and pencil being sharpened.....

I finished the day with a stroll down the iron road at Salthouse! A Short-eared Owl had been reported the previous evening - would it show again?

An unusual capture of two juv Mute Swans on the way - flying united!

With at least an hour of daylight the Shortie showed!! Never close enough for feather detail.


But providing some atmospheric shots as the sun set....



A bonus Barn Owl too!

A mere 6 miles or so to travel back to the B&B this evening plus a relaxing pint or two.....
PS - I never did list that Goose, currently awaiting results of DNA / genetic tests and it's flight recorder.....
