An early-morning trip with a friend produced 5 adult Yellow-legged Gulls, as well as 4 Yellow Wagtails (2 adults with 2 juveniles), a female Wheatear, 9 Green Sandpipers, 3 Common Sandpipers and 5 Snipe.
Later, an evening walk at Holkham was surprisingly productive. A Hobby flew west and the hedgerows bordering the public footpath held 20+ Chiffchaffs (a mixture of adults and juveniles), 3 Lesser Whitethroats, a Blackcap, a Garden Warbler and a smart Spotted Flycatcher in bushes just south of the pine-belt, just east of the Joe Jordan hide.
