Bird count
Bto Bird count at Filby and Ormesby Little Broad couple weeks ago now, saw loads of Damselfly Nymphs crawling out of water and drying out on the Boardwalk, unusual plant also seen it is apparently from America never seen it along the Boardwalk before, saw a Garden Warbler, then after the count went to potter Heigham, the back of Hickling Broad nearby to the Eel catchers hut, saw my first Swallowtail Butterfly of the year.

My patch, Caister On Sea
Have decided as I cant get out ands about much anymore that my patch will be Caister and any of the surrounding walks, Last week there were a couple of stunning days, beautiful hazy sunshine, I got up early and start out at 7 o clock, it was so peaceful, hardly any dog walkers, and the sea was just lapping gently, I walk the Caister coastal path to California cliffs, good views over beach and surrounding gorse bracken areas,
Saw Cormorants out to sea, also 4 Ringed Plover looked like they are pairing up calling and swooping with each other, also a group of Linnets were flitting back and forward from the Beach to the shrubby bushes near the gorse. Also there was definitely a Snow Bunting which seemed to have attached itself with the Linnets.Popped out again the next day but it was mostly Sky Larks and Dunnocks.
Went to Thurne on Sunday after Bto Bird Count, but at Filby West End of Broad was a Red Necked Grebe, distant but using a scope can see.At Thurne there were Wigeon, Teal, Gadwall, Shoveller, Dabchick,
Also there was a Muntjac Deer in my garden eating all my plants.
