Curlew Sandpiper at Buckenham Marsh

Record shots? I'm the master of the record shot! Normally I wouldn't bother to try for a photograph of a small wader half a mile away in the heat haze, but Curlew Sandpiper is quite a scarce bird in the mid-Yare Valley.

I felt a bit sorry for LGRE who arrived after having dipped the long-staying Caspian at Hickling: still, he seemed genuinely pleased to see the CS and to hear about some nearby Spotted Flycatchers.

Other birds included two Yellow Wagtails and four or five distant Hobbies
