Since I needed to pick up some smoked fish from the excellent Smokehouse at Brancaster Staithe, Brian and I started at Titchwell, walking out to the sea to look for divers and grebes. There were lots of waders: Sanderling, Knot, Grey Plover, Turnstone and so on. Eventually we found a couple of Great Northern Divers, as well as a Slavonian Grebe and a Black-throated Diver - too far out for useable photos. Several Red-breasted Mergansers scooted by offshore. On the way back to the carpark we added Water Rail to the tally, as well as (probably!) the reported Siberian Chiffchaff.
The move to Cley for coffee wasn't particularly productive, so we carried on to Ludham Airfield where we eventually located two Bewick's Swans among a herd of Whoopers.
