Back in September I posted on the blog that younger birders might finally get to 'unblock' Nutcracker this Autumn: I hadn't anticipated the opportunity would occur in Norfolk! Linda and I left as soon as we could, but parking was already a little problematical. A large crowd (including most of the well-known locals) had already assembled, trying to glimpse the bird through gaps between the houses: after half an hour or so the Nutcracker obliged by perching in a Birch tree for perhapa a minute.
One little thought: there were a number of people in the best spots who'd seen the bird several times - down to just a couple of metres. It would have been considerate if they'd've moved on as newcomers arrived...
