Waders and Butterflies in North Norfolk!

A morning on the North Coast with Norman and Brian was both enjoyable and productive.

First stop was Cley: since someone was cutting reeds in front of the centre hides, we spent an hour or so watching Pat's Pool, where many of the reserve's birds seem to have relocated. Best of the bunch were some very colourful Ruff and Black-tailed Godwits, as well as Green & Common Sandpiper, Little Gull and lots of juvenile Avocets.

Once the Sun had emerged from behind the clouds we moved south to Holt Country Park, where the other two were keen to connect with Silver-washed Fritillary and White Admiral: both species duly obliged!

After an enjoyable viewing of the photographic exhibition at Holt Church, we spent an hour among the Common Darters (but little else!) at Walsey Hills.
