Sheringham

Thursday 17 January 2018
A trip to Sheringham turned up a couple of Purple Sandpipers on the rocks and the usual bunch of Turnstones were muscling their way along the path.

A visit to Letheringsett for a Coues's Arctic Redpoll drew a blank but some 15 Bullfinches there slightly made up for it.

Then at the RNLI station Sheringham, the male and somewhat pristine Black Redstart was whizzing around the car park.

A reasonable morning but slightly disappointed by the background to the Black Red, notably the gutter and when on the grass it was only face on. Still another bird species on the big year list, must add it up soon.
