Horsey Gap was our first stop to see the unbelievably accommodating 1st winter male Desert Wheatear; at one point it was perched on the foot of one of the photographers!

Next stop was Gt Yarmouth to witness the hovering Rough-legged Buzzard then onto Stubbs Mill to see Cranes, Marsh & Hen harriers and Barn Owls coming in to Roost.

Little Bittern

A record shot of the Little Bittern

A quick dash to Tichwell resulted in good but brief views( perching in the reeds and in flight) of the recently arrived Little Bittern. Our luck was in since we only waited for about 30min to see this minutive Bittern but unfortunately the luck didn't hold for we got absolutely saturated by a fierce Norfolk squall on the way back to the car.
