10th April 2017 (Norfolk)

Had a look at Sculphorpe Moor for the first time in a few years. Wandered up to the two furthest  hides seeing a couple of Marsh Tits, a large flock of Sand Martins and Swallows and a couple of Red Kites. Also had a buzzard-sized bird dart over my head and then quickly disappear over the tree line, based on the sprawk-like jizz it may well have been the female goshawk that was reported here earlier in the month.

A look from the Fen Hide produced my first views of Sedge Warbler this year. The bird tables provided fantastic photo opportunities of the variety of species including Bramblings, Bullfinches, Reed Buntings and even a pair of Mandarins! Could spend a whole day in that hide!
