Burnham Overy Dunes, Gun Hill, Garden Drove & Gramborough Hill!

Very short account of today as typing one fingered on phone!

At Burnham Overy: Sat for an hour not seeing a Pallas's Grasshopper Warbler!  Red Kite, Common Buzzard, Kestrel, Osprey over my head east at 12:25 - thanks to Ashley Saunders for telling Dave Appleton and Dave letting me know just in time! In the bushes at the end of the boardwalk one Redwing. Gunhill: Whinchats x 2, Wheatear, Meadow Pipit's, Linnets and  on the beach six grey plovers and several Brent geese.

Garden Drove: Redwings x 3, cracking views of Yellow-browed Warbler, Spotted Flycatcher, tit flocks,  chaffinches and a Barn Owl.

Gramborough Hill: Male Redstart, Stonechat, Robin and a single Dunlin by edge of pool on the way back at dusk. Also  pipistrel bat.
