Ouzel

 
 
Out on patch again early this morning and first time ive been really disappointed. 3 White Wagtail, Sandmartins, Chiffchaffs and Blackcaps was it. Gave it a right good going over too.
So Came back had some breakfast then nipped out to Winterton Dunes. firstly covering South Dunes but just a Willow Warbler. Then on to the North side where some Ring Ouzels had been found. Struggled initially so just sat on a hill and waited. 30 minutes went by when finally I spotted a cracking male in the distance, then 2-3 and finally 4 birds together. Don't think ive ever seen 4 together. Went for a closer look and they showed fairly well but in deep cover. Amazing how they disappear into the smallest bush. Finished here and moved onto Horsey for a late lunch and then home. Cettis calling at Horsey.
