Great Grey Shrike and Slavonian Grebe

Started on the patch and Radar Lodge but it was surprisingly quiet. 2 Reed Bunting 8 Siskin 3 Red Throated divers and a Stonechat in off the sea was the best Danny and I could manage.
We nipped to North Denes to check see if the Great Grey Shrike was still about from yesterday and it was.



Next onto Mutford Lock where we again checked to see if the long staying Slavonian Grebe was still around. Danny picked it out first and it was showing really nicely.






Also here were Cormorant, a Ringed Black Headed Gull Kingfisher and a Common Sandpiper.


Went home for lunch then slogged the patch again but nothing new, lots of common migrants but no special one.
Disappointing weekend really as it held so much potential but lacked any real goodies.
