Stilts & Montagu's

Titchwell and Burnham Market (Norfolk): News of 5 Black-winged Stilts together at Titchwell resulted in a change of plan and despite having visited this site yesterday, we returned this morning and obtained distant views of the Stilts together. Also: Bittern (heard), Cetti's Warbler (heard), Cuckoo (heard), Ruddy Duck (1), Little Egret (2), Marsh Harrier (3), Little Gull (3 immature), Little Ringed Plover (1), Common Tern (1), Swallow, Swift, Reed Warbler, Sedge Warbler, Blackcap, Avocet, Black-tailed Godwit, Bar-tailed Godwit, Knot and Bearded Tit (3). We then travelled up to a site in the Burnham Market area where we enjoyed good views of 2 male Montagu's Harriers together along with Marsh Harrier (3) and 2 adult Mediterranean Gulls.
