Last weekend we visited a UEA open day, and stayed overnight in Kings Lynn. This allowed us to do a bit of birding the evening after at Titchwell as well as stopping at Frampton on the way home...
Titchwell held a great selection on Saturday evening, including 10
Spoonbills,
Great White Egret,
Little Stint, 2
Curlew Sandpipers,
Bearded Tits, and best of all, 4 adult
Turtle Doves sat together...

A stop at RSPB Frampton on the way back on Sunday morning was also very enjoyable with highlights including the
Long-billed Dowitcher, 16
Spotted Redshanks,
Curlew Sandpiper,
Spoonbill,
Black-necked Grebe and an impressive 1500+
Black-tailed Godwits. 3
Willow Emerald Damselfly were an
odonata tick for me.
