Not much time!

21/1/06 Titchwell RSPB Leaders Simeon, James, Matthew.
We got to Titchwell and headed straight to the sightings book. After reading half way down the page we had already decided to head for the beach. We had only got about one hour fifteen minutes, so we decided to blow it all on the beach. We got there to be greeted by what looked like an oil spill, but it turned out to be about 1000 Common Scoters. In amongst the raft were two Velvet Scoters. The only other decent thing on the sea were a few Goldeneye. Other highlights on the reserve were; Grey Plover and a Common Snipe. As we walked back along the path, about 2500 Brent geese flew in to roost. The day had given me (Simeon) a good number of yearers and some fairly respectable sightings.
