A nice start to the year!

2/1/06 Cley NWT and Massingham Heath leaders: Connor
I travelled with my dad to Cley NWT to see the Ross's Gull .It hadn't been seen by the time we arrived and unfortunately never showed, however, there were two Black Throated Divers, four Red Throated Divers, eight Great Crested Grebes, two Guillemots, (one of which landed on the beach, see gallery) six Eiders, three Common Scoters while there were two Marsh Harriers and a Kestrel hunting the marsh.

When we arrived at Massingham there was no sign of the hoped for Rough Legged Buzzard so we walked up a public bridleway and found a Rough Legged Buzzard sitting in a tree! It was mobbed by a crow and flew into the distance, revealing a superb white rump. Two Kestrels and two Sparrowhawks were also seen.
