20200926 Little Gull wreck, Grey Phalarope & Arctic Tern, Kelling WM

 The large water meadow South of Kelling Quags appears to have been sold to a 'wildlife trust',
a wish expressed by the owners!?!
Hopefully the NWT... and not the national dog park trust. 
Whether the NOA got involved is unclear.

20200626 Little Gull & Grey Phalarope

20200626 Grey Phalarope

20200928 Arctic Tern
Juvenile spent several days over water meadow.
Faster swoops to surface than Little Gulls.

20200928 Arctic Tern
No secondary bar and very compact.

20200828 Cetti's Warbler
Meadow Lane Kelling WM.
Juvenile bird with pinkish legs and short tail.
Ranks as my top Cetti's shot to date.

Kelling WMs is a great all-round bird site, aided by the freshwater flowing through it and the total absence of nature reserve paraphernalia.  
To secure the whole site the freshwater pool meadow will need to be obtained by a 'wildlife trust' from  Kelling Estate ownership...

20200928 Mediterranean Gull
Adult winter just offshore with Gull flock. A few Meds were wrecked on the WMeadow on 26th.

20200928 Sheringham RNLI
On search for missing persons today...
