Stoat, Kelling Water Meadow, 15th June2020. Ferrying no fewer than eight very small kits across
the footpath one-by-one!
Mute Swans, Cley, 14th June2020.
Marsh Warbler, Walsey Hills, Cley, 13th June2020.
Another surprise found by RM. Walsey Hills a bit cramped for
socially distancing birding, so take care.
Cetti's Warbler, Walsey Hills, Cley, 11th June2020.
This is one of a brood of fledglings at Walsey Hills this
morning. If there's another mild winter, we're going to be
overrun with them next year!
Barn Owl, Cley, 10th June2020. I think this is Casper's mate. They seem to be busy
feeding young at the moment.
Grasshopper Warbler, North Walsham, Norfolk, 10th June2020.

Osprey, Cley, 25th May2020.
It's not every day you see an Osprey sitting next to the East
Bank - in fact, I never have done before in 55 years of birding
here!
Starlings, Cley, 25th May2020.
Our Starlings go absolutely mad for the Vine House Farm "Super
Suet Fatballs" and devour them in minutes, but won't touch the
ordinary "Suet Fatballs" at all, even when I mix them up. The
Rose-coloured Starlings are on their way, so stock up with the
Supers now!

Spotted Flycatcher, Cley, 24th May2020. A nice year-tick surprise in our garden this
morning - this lovely bird, photographed through our kitchen
window double glazing.
Common Cranes, Cley, 24th May2020.
A nice surprise today: these three Cranes lingering on the
reserve all day. I'm not so sure the Avocets (and maybe the
Lapwings too) were that pleased to see them though...

locally?
Green Longhorn Moth, Walsey Hills, Cley, 18th May2020.
Grey Partridge, Cley, 17th May2020. Well, it's no use pretending that the Grey
Partridges in the Eye Field haven't come straight from the local
shooting morons.
Azure Damselfly, East Bank, Cley, 17th May2020.
Stonechat, Cley, 15th May2020.

Green Hairstreak, Walsey Hills, Cley, 15th May2020.
Red-necked Phalarope, Pat's Pool, Cley, 14th May2020. A lovely bird, but somewhat distant as the hides
