    The Snow Buntings And Golden Pheasants seem interesting and could come back via Framlingham for the Rough-legged Buzzard. Thanks for that, there is just too much out there to see and its not often I go away this time of year. I think I'll head towards Snettisham/Tichwell and see where I end up...

    I bought a celestron regal 100F-ED & the 1st bird I see through it was a starling. I was really surprised how detailed they were, it was a cloudy day and the scope was out standing.

    amazing how light can change their colours, one thing about being new to bird watching is even common birds are interesting when you get to see them up close. Thanks for the info, much appreciated
