A nice selection of birds in Norfolk today – hope this continues over the weekend for everyone! I was serenaded by my first spring Chiffchaff this morning in an oak tree just before I walked into work – lovely! My mother reported that she has seen several Bramblings in her garden most mornings this week and also a Garganey (drake and female) at Holme Marsh.

Also 'Viz Mig' from Chris Mills at Hunstanton this morning here: https://www.facebook.com/norfolk.birding?ref=tn_tnmn

Its always nice to look on Trektellen at the visible migration at Hunstanton, which is mostly carried out by Andy Brown, Gary Hibbard and others. But sadly there are no sightings added to 2013 at all yet.

Out birding tomorrow, working all day on Sunday, but have booked Monday off to go birding!
