20260319 Glaucous Gull, Horsey Gap

 

20260319 Little Egret
Arnolds's Marsh early morn.

20260316 Herring Gull... Ness Point Lowestoft

 

20260316 Herring Gull

20260316

20260316
Right side of head.

20260316
Left side of head...!?
Surprise should only last a nano second.

20260316 Great Cormorant
1st winter, Rollesby Broad and assessment of Pallas's Gull info for twitch...
'Near adult' must be genuine...??

20260316 Harris's Hawk
Falconer in Birdseye grounds flying Hawk at Gulls.
Highly interesting situation if a Pallas's Gull had been present...
The Hawk was reluctant to fly up high onto roofs and at the Gulls. 

20260305 Peregrine & Marsh Harrier, Cley Marshes

 

20260305 Barn Owl
Hunting Blakeney Freshes early morn.

20260305 Reed Bunting 
In full spring song.
Back and side light with mellow background.

20260305 Peregrine
Spooked  all off North Scrape then all other scrapes, just for fun.
Mobbed by the crazy Avocets.

20260305 Peregrine
1st winter bird which did not press home any attack.
Seemed to peer about at Dunlin hiding in Avocet mallee.

20260305 Peregrine
Buzzing Pats pool but without intent.
Appeared as a large Falcon, but not well fed.

20260503 Marsh Harrier
Male with birthday gifts for females.

20250305 Peregrine
Banking as if to strike at Dunlin, centre of image...
but levelled out and glided away.
Massed Avocet mobbing could have been effective here.
A Buzzard has been seen to knock down overly keen Avocet in recent years.

20260305 Reed Bunting
As above, but from less of a light angle...
Birds body and head side on, but less of a 3D effect....

20260302 Marsh Harrier
Cley alpha male now has a damaged left leg.

20260227 Eastern Black Redstart
Esplanade Gardens territory.

20260227 E Black Red
Now in full song. A rather sharp and scratchy warble.

Singing and dancing in the rain.
