Snow and Lapland Buntings

Another trip to Salthouse produced some good results for Snow and Lapland Buntings
they are great to photograph in the shingle.

A visit to Titchwell

Had a good day at Titchwell, Norfolk, a great place for bird sightings with common and rarer birds showing well.

Chaffinches where near the picnic area

and the Robins showed really well as usual

this Brambling was busy having a sing

and some Common Redpoll (above) and Siskin (below) made the day really special

Arctic Raider

Had a very surprising day today, a Pomarine Skua had been at Salthouse for a few days so I thought I would try my luck with it. I found him quite early attacking a Common Gull which was unwell near the Iron road leading to the beach. I photographed the whole event, although somewhat gory, but that is what nature is about.

A trip around North Norfolk

Went up to North Norfolk today to see what was about...

A few Redwing were feeding on some Rosehip berries

along with Blue Tits

This Oystercatcher posed well and aloud close views

but these Jays made my day at Sanderingham, they come so close here.
