Ham Wall RSPB - Wed 14 Jan

A flying visit to Sutton Bingham at lunchtime failed to produce anything other than sixty-four Wigeon off the dam and a fly-over Meadow Pipit so I headed up to Ham Wall RSPB reserve this afternoon.
A walk out to the second viewing point produced a few things of note. A single Great White Egret was showing pretty well from the "2nd VP" and three Marsh Harriers were also seen. A managed a couple of year ticks with a single Lesser Redpoll feeding in an alder tree and three Bullfinches showing well, if a bit flighty.
The expected wildfowl were present alongside a good number of Lapwing. A nice afternoon out despite grey skies and a bitter wind!
