After Norfolk a trip to Brandon Marsh.

The trouble with going birding in Norfolk is that you have to return home and go birding locally so it was with little joy I went to Brandon on Monday lunchtime.

As it happened it was not too bad at all.In the Teal pool were 4 Greenshanks,2 Green Sandpipers and 3 Common Snipe.

From the Carlton hide there were 2 Greenshanks,1 Common Snipe,2 Green Sandpipers,a juvenile Water Rail,a Kestrel and a Sparrowhawk.

The bad news was that I saw no Hobbies and no Kingfishers allthough they had been around.
