The old fella drove us to Santon Downham this morning and we arrived around 8.30am. We parked in the car park by the railway and walked down to the underpass to find the Willows that the bird had been seen in yesterday. We needed to walk further along the path and look back at the Willows before we found the target bird sitting on top of a Hawthorn in among the Willows. The bird remained distant but gave excellent scope views.
The snow started to fall so we headed back to the car park picking up Kingfisher and Brambling on our way.
