Returned from the snowy and icy wastes of the North Norfolk coast and back to Tottenham Marsh this morning - to find the Lee Navigation frozen and a lot of mist, so not much seen overhead. And didn't make contact with George's two star birds of Sunday - a fircrest at "pond site" with tit flock, and a woodcock at WM East!
Still gadwall north of the East Bridge at WM East (a startling 13 by the time I left the Marsh) and teal in the west channel. A linnet heard calling overhead going north, but not seen. Four redwings up calling from the trees at the west channel and off west. On Clendish Marsh at 8.25am, 8 fieldfare flew west, then a little egret flew north over Pymmes Brook and there was a grey wagtail and a meadow pipit on the concrete in the channel at the bridge.
Chiffchaff at the Gas Bridge at the NW of WM West. Sparrowhawk shot south by the Lee Navigation and there were 2 little grebes in one of the few open patches at the Lee, under a willow. Standing on th Green Bridge I heard a brambling call. Sounded like it was in the trees there, but I couldn't see it and it didn't call again. On WM East a snipe flew SE calling.
