I'm staying in Norfolk at the moment. I was at Titchwell today, and am going to get out early tomorrow morning. Is there a best place to go for rares?

Okay I must admit that I gave in note taking after a while as I was missing Thrushes coming in off by there 100s but here's what I reckon I had personally numbers wise today at Holme.
Redwing coming up 10,000, Fieldfare 5000 easy, Blackbirds 500, Song Thrushes low 100's, Brambling 300, Hawfinch 1, Ring Ouzel 30+, Black Redstart 5, Common Redstart 2 and Robins 500+
I think that's about it...
NO OBP was at the opposite end of the reserve when found!!!
Halve your numbers, Rob and that's what I recon I had around Stiffkey and I only arrived at noon!
I am still convincing myself that I didn't walk past Stiffkey's little gem and that it had only just arrived when found!
PS apologies to anyone I annoyed talking on my phone too loudly, hopefully lesson learned
Half a Hawfinch!?!...Interesting! Tell me more... ;o)
Hi all
A rare away day gave me a chance to get to Blakeney Point, 08.30-14.30 produced one of my most exciting migration days in 20 years of birding.
I nearly made a comment about that, but thought someone else would pick up on it, so thanks!
Any more infomation about the OBP?
OBP sat in tree out side the visitor centre like a babe then dropped down onto the deck = no sign since...

Thinking of heading up tomorrow. Wind is same direction but a bit lighter and there's fog all night into tomorrow. Anyone like to hazard a guess as to what it will be like?
(It's either that or shoot down to Kent for a serin & dusky!)
