Shingle Street was bleak this morning; the sea was rough and there was a cold strong north-easterly wind. I was out birding with my boss; we watched Snow Buntings flit and forage amongst the sparse vegetation on the beach. On the shingle island at the mouth of the Ore there were c200 Cormorants along with a small gathering of gulls. Our walk took us around Oxley Marshes; numerous Blackbirds and a few Redwings and Fieldfares foraged in the berry laden hawthorn bushes. Curlews and Lapwings were on the meadows and we flushed a Woodcock.
At Ramsholt we had Avocet, Rock Pipit and Green Sandpiper. Not too many birds were seen but none-the-less it was a very enjoyable morning.
