Wednesday 3rd December and a friend and I decided to visit Norfolk to see what was around.

As usual, first visit was to Thornham where a Curlew was feeding in the harbour

and a Reed Bunting posed nicely on a gorse bush.

Moving on to Brancaster Staithe, there was the odd subject worth excercising the trigger finger for. Common Gull

and a Curlew again feeding close in.

Holkham only produced a relatively close Pink-footed Goose from Lady Anne Drive

and then returning the way we came, a visit to Titchwell where, predictably, the water levels on the fresh marsh were still too high for anything close but we did find a few Chiffchaffs feeding around a tree.

Finally, we called in at Snettisham  as there was a rather beautiful sunset to see if it was possible to photograph birds flying to roost. No Pink-footed Geese but a small flock of Curlews made up for that.

So not a great day but just about worth the trip overall.
