Morning Light at Hunstanton

In addition to the possibility of a stunning sunset, Hunstanton can also provide beautiful lighting for morning bird photography as the sun climbs above the cliff accentuating the intricate plumage of our winter waders, gulls and egrets. Sanderlings are always a challenge but worth the chase!! 

RSPB Titchwell

Although a wet day was forecast, we actually only had one very short shower at lunchtime while we were eating lunch inside the visitor centre and the afternoon was fine with good skies and light. Apart from the Snow Buntings, other species included Black-tailed Godwit, Curlew, Bar-tailed Godwit, Sanderling, Goosander, Little Egret, Linnet and Teal

Birds from Hull and Hornsea

Although not a birdwatching trip, we did see a lot of birds during our visit to Hull area. The Hull and Humber banks had large numbers of waders and gulls at low tide and these cute Sanderling along with dozens of Turnstone were everywhere at Bridlington and Hornsea and were comparatively tame.
