After lunch at Brown's, we took a walk around Lynford, adding the usual woodland species as well as large flocks of Siskins and Lesser Redpolls, finishing off at Santon Downham, where the best we managed was a flighty Grey Wagtail.

Goshawks (and other raptors!) in the Brecks...
A fabulous - if somewhat damp - morning in the Brecks with Brian. As soon as we arrived at the regular watchpoint we began to pick up raptors: groups of Buzzards, pairs of Red Kites, a possible Hen Harrier. Then Brian picked out a fast-travelling Goshawk: the first of three or four we saw in an hour or so.
