Radde's

Monday 17 October
Decided on a quick visit to Warham Greens where yesterday a Radde's Warbler had been showing well, but domestic duties had me housebound for the day. On arrival things didn't look good.....

I gave it half an hour, others had been here since first light and nothing. So went along the Marsh track. Thrushes were plentiful, still piling in from the North Sea but always jumpy and unapproachable. Here a Fieldfare in the distance.

Out on the marsh itself there was a ringtail Hen Harrier, loads of Little Egrets some Brent Geese and a good flock of Teal flew past.

 Even this Brent Goose was keeping an eye out for the Radde's !

Still more easterlies forecast later in the week so who knows, but beginning to get a bit late.....
