At last: a Grasshopper Warbler at Strumpshaw Fen!

Today I popped over to the Fen quite early (7.00am) to look for the reported 'three drake Garganey' from last night. Unfortunately, there was no sign of them, but I did manage two photos I was very happy with - a smart little Grasshopper Warbler - and enjoyed the constant 'chatter' of Garden Warblers as I walked the circuit. A Kingfisher was perched by the river bench, while a distant female Cuckoo called continually.

A move to Buckenham added a much closer Cuckoo, as well as several Whitethroats, Linnets and waders. A dapper little Weasel scurried in front of me as I walked back to the car.
