By which I mean me: I haven't been to Swineham for ages what with important business to attend to, being the perfect husband/father, and a tiny bit of twitching. The long weekend is providing a bit more breathing space than usual though so I headed down this morning. It was pretty quiet, predictably, but a few decent birds and photo ticks for the year were on offer.
| Whimbrel at Swineham Point |
| 2 birds were present |
| After recent events in Somerset, I thought I had better check for the all dark rump of Hudsonian Whimbrel - sadly, it wasn't to be |
| A single Bearded Tit pinging over the reedbed (#165) |
| First Blackbird fledgling of the year |
| Blackcap |
| Don't often see Sand Martin on the deck at Swineham |
| A few Swift were over the gravel pits (#166) |
| Sedge Warbler |
