Very showy WRYNECK at Thorpeness

A Wryneck turned up on the beach at Thorpeness last week and it turned out to be a star giving all who were there quite a show.

Migrants starting to arrive in Suffolk (Autumn is early!!)

On Tuesday we got the news a

ICTERINE WARBLER

had been found at East Lane, so we popped to see it, as it's a Life tick for me.

 

 

Also in the same hedge row were

6 SPOTTED FLYCATCHERS

 

 

 

Also two WHEATEAR on the sea defences

 

 

Later in the week at Shingle Street the long awaited WHINCHATS turned up in good numbers.
