Along the coast a ways!!

The early morning at Titchwell Started with a promising bright sky and little wind, So it was a quick breakfast and kit checked before the move to the entrance and a very nearly second breakfast!!
resist we did and moved out onto the reserve, Cetti's all along the reedbed by the track, doing their damnedest to give you a heart attack with their sudden outbursts. Bearded Reedlings tantalisingly flitting around in the edge of reed beds, there! no! there! no! etc.etc.
And being unable to resist a challenge we took a while.

Sadly no adult males presented themselves.

But an impressive bird all the same.

Trying to get some shots as and when they came into the open, which was not that often. We continued along to the new hides, and impressive they are to, each of the pools being overlooked one over the freshwater pool and the other overlooking the tidal lagoon. One of the impressive items was the method of opening and closing of windows, up or down in and out and they were clean really good stuff.
Anyhow a few of the shots from the rest of the day , including the beach .

Eurasian Curlew.


Spoonbill

Spotted Redshank

Grey Plover

Golden Plover

Bar-tailed Godwit.

That should be enough for the moment and it is getting late.

see you soon I hope.
