Great to get in on the Bar-tailed Godwit movement taking place across the UK this morning, with one (then shortly joined by another four!) at RSPB Cantley Marshes. #NorfolkBirding

Another evening out with the Wheatears and Ring Ouzels on Roydon Common. They're only around for a few weeks each year, so I always feel like I need to make the most of it #UKBirding #norfolkbirding #birds

I’m now pretty convinced this is a Wood Sandpiper, backed up by comments made here and on other forums where I’ve posted these pictures. Seen over Thornham harbour last night #UKBirding #norfolkbirding #birds

I was quite surprised to be treated to a brief but noisy song flight by this Green Sandpiper over Thornham Harbour this evening #UKBirding #norfolkbirding #birds

Back on patch this morning and it was a chilly and misty start at East Wretham Heath. First records of Cuckoo and Garden Warbler for the patch this year but no Whitethroat yet. Good to see a bit of water in Langmere now but it appears to have stopped rising.

It's been a good Spring so far on my local patch of inland NE Norfolk. A 2CY Peregrine, Cetti's Warblers establishing, first record of Great White Egret and after missing out the past few years, Ring Ouzels! 4 different birds all feeding on a potato field #norfolkbirding @nenbc.bsky.social

I've been lucky enough to see a few Ring Ouzels this spring. Still really pleased to find a small flock on my usual stomping ground of Roydon Common this afternoon #UKBirding #norfolkbirding #birds

Song Thrush at Titchwell yesterday afternoon. Quite easy to locate in the tree canopy with all the noise it was making #UKBirding #norfolkbirding #birds

Is anyone aware of other recordings of the Westleton bird?

A first-summer Ross’s Gull, a bird of the high and remote Arctic, spent the day following tractors around newly sown potato fields south of Thornham in North Norfolk after an initial brief sighting at RSPB Titchwell. For much of the day it was distant in heat haze but occasionally better views if you happened to be in the right place, but later on gave itself up close to a road feeding with summer plumaged Mediterranean and Black-headed Gulls.
The unpredictability of UK birding is so much part of the fun. Who would have predicted a Ross’s Gull in mid April walking around behind a tractor in a potato field in North Norfolk? Great find by Trev Girling who got the news out immediately and superb relocate by Matt Lonsdale. #NorfolkBirding

Congrats and thanks Trevor Girling for finding this stunning Ross’s Gull yesterday morning and breaking news live. A first for Norfolk for me and undoubtedly Bird of the Year so far! Thanks too, Matt Lonsdale, for relocating in a field inland, shortly after it left the coast. #NorfolkBirding

Ross's Gull in a potato field near Thornham this afternoon. A species that breeds in the arctic and rarely makes it as far south as Norfolk, hence there was quite a crowd out to see it. I'm normally a bit of a gull sceptic, but it was a stunning little thing #UKBirding #norfolkbirding #birds

Thanks to Trev Girling for finding this dainty arctic wanderer. A Ross’s Gull, the first in Norfolk for 20 years. A proper twitch today at Thornham! #norfolkbirding

2CY Ross’s Gull at Thornham.
My 5th Ross’s Gull, but first in 20 years, and first in this 2CY plumage. Heat haze and distance a bit of a hindrance, but well pleased to have connected.

42 years of hurt gone. 😅 After a tragically wrong call back in 1984 (Having already seen 2 Ross’s Gulls in Britain I twitched a Little Egret for a lifer instead) I finally have got Ross’s Gull in Norfolk.
✅ #400. (Again, after last years lump-fest)

20 years since rubbish views of the only Ross's Gull I've seen, it was nice to finally get another one, and a bonus in Norfolk. Eventually showed well! #NorfolkBirding #rarebirdsUK @birdguides.bsky.social @rarebirder.bsky.social

Oh I love this one...🙂
July 3 2023 - we saw a fresh juvenile limosa at Titchwell ~ Ouse Washes bird, white flag #12.
April 16 2026 - there he is, on the Ouse Washes, now a smart adult ♂️, flag readable!
So cool to see him again.

Cuckoo at Strumpshaw tonight, along with reeling grasshopper warblers, reed, willow and sedge warblers too. At least two bitterns booming and one out in the open in the left cut at Fen Hide #norfolkbirding
