Buckenham Marsh: no Whitefronts, but two bonus Ravens!

On my way back from unlocking Hemblington Church (a little responsibility shared by several locals) I stopped at Buckenham for a quick search for Taiga Bean Geese. In the event I managed to see two or three, but they were very elusive and distant. While chatting with a visiting birder on the raised river bank by the hide we heard the unmistakable 'grrrronk' of a Raven: we quickly located these unusual corvids on the other side of the river, being harassed by Rooks and then a Peregrine. All the usual suspects (Pink-feet and Wigeon) were present in good numbers, as were Marsh Harriers and Buzzards. A Kingfisher was almost subliminal flying away along a dyke...
