Stiffkey Area
David Norgate, and I did an afternoon loop of Stiffkey, from the campsite carpark via the village and back produced a few birds.
Highlights were a European White-fronted Goose with Graylags on the Fen, 5 Grey Plover on flats south of the point, including 4 birds in smart breeding plumage. Lesser Whitethroat was also around the Fen which was holding good numbers of Blackwit, Common & Green Sand and a a handful of Wigeon. Also one decked Whimbrel was on the creek to the north of the Fen, but many more birds were seen moving west on the way back to the car.
On the private floods to the east of the village, a stunningly fresh juvenile Little Stint was with Common and Green Sandpipers.
