The weekend after

Not every day you get to digiscope a Firecrest... This male showed well in the Hawthorns at the back of the NOA Car Park and stopped to preen, long enough to get a few shots and a short video. Saturday saw me record 97 species (all seen) at Snettisham alone, with 107 species seen (of which only 5 were heard) at Heacham, Dersingham and Holme on the Sunday. 119 species in a weekend cart be bad.
