Sunday 14th December 2025.
As I took so many photos yesterday at Normandy Marshes, it would be a shame not to put them on my blog as the weather was so good yesterday and some excellent birds were on show. So enjoy.
Above, Dunlin fed close to the seawall and seemed totally oblivious to the many birders passing by. Below, as did this Curlew.
Above, several Avocets were on the main lagoon and below, this Redshank was feeding on the ebbing tide from the seawall.
Above, the female Dartford Warbler takes time to check its surroundings and below, a flock of Dunlin flying low over the water by the seawall.
Above, a Little Egret passing close to the seawall and below, out on the mudflats, good numbers of Brent Geese were present among the waders.
Above, a small flock of Brent swam close to the seawall and below, more Dunlin feeding in one of the small channels by the seawall.
Above, one of the pair of female Red-breasted Mergansers offshore and below, the Kingfisher was perched on a post on one of the small islands on the Reserve with Pintail and Wigeon nearby.
