Totally worth waking up at 3:00 AM 🌊🪶
Watching thousands of waders twist and turn in perfect harmony as the tide rolls in, they really know how to put on a show.

It wasn't all waders at Snettisham RSPB reserve but also good to see GANNET, WHEATEAR, SANDWICH TERNS and up to three EUROPEAN TURTLE DOVES, one of which showed rather well! #BirdsSeenIn2025 #norfolkbirding #snettisham #norfolk #birds #birding

The Snettisham torc c.20cm across made with hollow donut terminalsand 64 wires wound into a hollow coiled neck ring
One of the Snettisham tubular torcs, 20cm across and hollow.
Fun fact for Sunday.
The gold used to make one Snettisham Great torc (that cube in the centre, c.4cm x 4cm x 4cm, which weighs 1084g) would make ten of the tubular torcs found at Snettisham (which weigh c.110g)
Tubular torcs - more bang for your buck! 😊

Frustrating couple of hours at #Snettisham yesterday evening looking for the #GreenishWarbler
2 brief glimpses of what was probably the bird only. Lovely evening to be there though.

A golden object - end of a Torc. It has eyes, nose, mouth & outline of a face.
Torc end, with a golden face.
Ken Hill, #Snettisham, #Norfolk
100 BCE
Face design was created by hammering the back to create the raised image.
The Torc was then produced from the single sheet of curled & flattened gold.
Deliberately damaged before placed in ground.

Playmobil Druid and Asterix burying gold torcs.
Whilst setting up a #PlaymobilInfestation post this morning set in the bog garden, I noticed one of my Boudica figures missing her torc - interesting scenario - either lost in the bog to excite future Playmobil archaeologists…or the Druid was involved…
