Handy!

31/3/07 Snettisham RSPB Leaders; Simeon and Connor
I went down to Snettisham Coastal Park at 7:00am and did some ringing with a few others. Due to strong winds and sunlight we only caught a few birds. 2 Goldcrests and a female Bullfinch (see gallery) were nice though. Connor arrived after a while and when the ringing finished we went to the pits to see the Red-breasted Geese. Onthe way down we saw 4 Shorelarks and a male Wheatear. Then a large flock of Brents flew onto the mudflats fairly close to the first hide and we managed to pick out the Red-Breasteds. The light was realy poor, but then they flew over the pits again and landed in the fields. We quickly walked across the bridge and got good views of them in the flock of Brents. A Pale-Bellied Brent was also present in the flock. With a couple of hours left we went to the coastal park again and found another male Wheatear and a singing Willow Warbler! It had been a really good day with several year ticks.
