| |  Shore Lark Suffolk
One nice 1st win bird on Kessingland Denes south of Lowestoft Suffolk this afternoon.
Very windy on the coast but showing well to just a few feet.

Let's hope there are more around this winter than last when there were only 7 birds-6 at Holkham + 1 at Minsmere. I was fortunate to see them at both sites. Love Holkham in winter for wild geese + bay for Twite, Snow Buntings + Shorelark. |

In fact I will definitely be calling in there in the next two weeks I will definitely also start the new year off there as well.
I can't get enough of Norfolk at any time of the year but the wintering geese are a bit special.

Maybe with some easterlies you might be lucky + get a Pallas' Warbler in the pines, John? |

I might be wrong but at Titchwell on Saturday a man approached Gill, Pete and I and proclaimed 'It's still here'.
We must have looked like we had come to see something specific and it later transpired that the bird in question was some sort of Lark. Maybe the same model.
I felt quite honoured that the chap had assumed we were twitchers. We obviously looked the part

I dont think the chap was thinking were you a Twitcher. It was ME!
I love telling others about birds I have seen and wanted to let you know it! which I assumed you knew about was still there.
Did you see it?
I love Titchwell as it is not always as busy as Minsmere Zoo. |

Pallas' would be nice also as I have only ever seen one of them before.
