With me and the Jims all needing Wryneck for a year tick we headed up the A12 to Landguard in search of the bird reported yesterday. We got lucky getting straight on the bird before 8am and enjoyed decent views on four different occasions during the morning.
At the caravan end we found at least eleven Whinchat and at the point a couple of Wheatear.
I picked up a Garden Warbler for a late year tick but we failed to find an expected Pied Flycatcher despite a couple getting reported during our visit. The Jims picked up a Redstart and we had numerous Lesser Whitethroat which is always good.
A decent morning in good company and the year list moves on to 234

Wonderful photos. Good to see such an obliging Wryneck! Can be notorious skulkers.
ReplyDeleteI now this if off topic but I'm looking into
ReplyDeletestarting my own blog and was curious what all is required to
get set up? I'm assuming haviing a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?
I'm not very intfernet smart so I'm not 100% positive.
Any suggesstions or advice would be greatly appreciated.
