An early start at Cley didn't produce anything desperately special, but close views of some common birds (Little Ringed Plover, Greenshank, Common Sandpiper, Lesser Whitethroat etc) were very welcome.
A walk along to Babcock Hide revealed that the Avocets on Watling Water have been more successful in raising a few chicks than those on the main reserve: they didn't seem to be particularly conscientious parents, though...
A move to Hickling gave us our first views of Swallowtails this season: at least four. Other species of interest included a pair of displaying Cranes, all the usual warblers and lots of Four-spotted Chasers
