Indulged in the special-kind-of-torture that is trudging up and down Blakeney Point; it was decent conditions with light winds and a bit of drizzle at dawn, it was hardly jumping with migrants but what was there did include a smart first-winter Red-backed Shrike at the point, 4 Whinchats, 2 Spotted Flycatchers and 2 Willow Warblers.
Other birds during a pleasant morning comprised 4 Spoonbills in the bay where there was also 4 Greenshanks, 4 Whimbrel and plenty of super-smart summer plumaged Grey Plover before the tide came in, an Arctic Skua chasing terns offshore, a single juvenile Arctic Tern and 9 Stonechats.
