Who ordered the rare steak? And a reminder for a 'hot birder'

Firstly, a little 'aide memoire' for 'a certain blogger'! Then: not something you see every day - a dead cow at Buckenham.

The riverbank repairs seem to be finished, but the soil is so saturated that it's impassable beyond the drainage pump, so everything was very, very distant.

Several flocks of geese flew over, including these Pinkfeet and Barnacles, while Claxton side was crawling with Marsh Harriers: six together at one point (one carrying two green wing-tags)

On the walk back, a cute Muntjac followed me along the path: in the mid-Yare, these are less common than Chinese Water Deer, so always good to see.
