Carlton Marsh

I n respect of birding the most impressive sighting was of a flock of 60 SKYLARK west of middle path. There was also 27 REED BUNTING on the wires running alongside. But I would increase this number to about 36 birds in all as we saw some before in another area and some after. We also saw 3 LITTLE EGRET and 2 REDWING as well as an elusive SONG THRUSH these birds have been well down on other years especially near the cost. A flock of some 50 Geese flew over and plenty of gulls streaming back from Aldeby dump. Only one KESTREL put in an appearance and a pair of EGYPTION GEESE.
When we returned to Lowestoft the PEREGRINE was in station on the silo.
