North Norfolk
So I returned the next day, but I don't want to talk too much about it. Instead I would like to mention the beauty of the landscape, a truly wonderful place, those beaches and those skies. We walked from the far side of Wells to Holkham Pines and it was amazing.
I love North Norfolk for everything it provides. The moderate walk along the beach on a warm afternoon and birding really wasn't the focus, well maybe just slightly out of focus but I could see things clearly enough.
A Red-Throated Diver hadn't realised the tide had receded and sat along one of the channels close to the beach. A single Greenshank surprised me as it flew along the harbour. A Common Buzzard flew over the pines and 70+ Pink-footed Goose flew in a small skein off the sea.
At Holkham Pines, a Yellow-Browed Warbler briefly flew through the trees in among the titmice flock, but it was far too windy to see anything really. The walk back was great too.
Happy days.
