20180603 Moltoni's Subalpine Warbler NT Blakeney Point


Common Tern
Pair fishing along Morston Creek.
Ringing of Common Tern last took place on the point in 2010...

Moltoni's Subalpine Warbler
Male in song from Lifeboat House garden and often calling, as churrr of Whitethroat, 'ttrrrrrr'.

Inadvertently and without due care and attention two
apprentices, spanning 30 years meet and confer, 
nervously discussing the status of Red-billed Tropicbird in the British Isles.
