Members Visit RSPB Snettisham

On Wednesday 30th September a hardy bunch of club members left their beds early to make their way down the coast to view the RSPB’s Snettisham ‘Spectacular’. A good time was had by all but unfortunately the birds had not received the memo about flying in a spectacular fashion above the expectant audience - maybe next time.

Later we had more success at one of the nearby lagoon hides where there were knots aplenty, many egrets and possibly twenty spoonbills.

As we began our walk back, the RSPB warden excitedly pointed out the osprey which seemed to have put the knots to flight again - rather too distant for our lenses but good to see anyway. And then it was off for a late (but spectacular) breakfast.
