Today has seen clear blue skies and this is truely an English summer's day. Today was our first visit to Titchwell Marsh a well orgnanised RSPB site. We had a great day starting off with moths at 9am - no, I'm not getting nerdy or geeky - but there were some experts there. We ticked off fifty birds and the star of the day was a Whimbrel that we watched for 20 minutes or so - there was no doubt about it and our first since Tabarca about four years ago. According to a RSPB man there was also a juvenile Mediteranean Gull amongst all the Black-headed ones which we did get the scope on.
We finished off this little jaunt with a visit to the Kings Head in Blakney and beer served from behind the bar - you can't get that in Spainetter or better it.
