Sutton Bingham - Thu 1 Dec

I'd not had the opportunity to visit the patch for the best part of a week due to other commitments and I nearly didn't bother today as thick fog pretty much meant no chance of seeing anything on the water. However, a stop at the Fishing Lodge did turn up a year tick in the form of a Black Redstart! Initially rather distant and very mobile it eventually started feeding on the boats where it showed much better, I even got a few shots through the fog.

After enjoying this little beauty for about fifteen minutes I headed round to the car park and had a wander. A couple of Chiffchaffs were the pick of the birds with nothing else of real note being seen.
