New Year and the start of another birding ‘year list’! A couple of hours walk around the Felbrigg estate this morning produced fifty species to get the list off to a good start. Highlights included Woodcock, Whooper Swan, Mandarin, Siskin and Nuthatch. Then this afternoon a quick drive along the coast to Cley delivered a ‘life tick’ in the shape of a Richardson’s Canada Goose! The Sacred Ibis was also present in the next field. Not a bad start to the birding year.

Happy 2013 to you all.
