Somerlyton Estate.

Made a new purchase yesterday of a small 20 meg digi camera. After the demise of my good old faithful Samsung. Sorry but I must admit to a failure in purchasing a 20meg Nikon Coolpix.. Choose for yourself what you think from the first picture from the garden to the LESSER BLACK BACKED just over a 100 meters away. Not bad for the first one.

Best bird today was a YELLOW HAMMER from the side of the road on the Somerlyton Estate. Bird was very sociable as it sat behind a telegraph pole. Moved of when 20 feet away but still a lovely male bird calling.
I also had 40 CORMORANTS over head at Gorlston obviously heading in the direction of Fritton Lake.
Lound Lakes: Several SHOVELORE and  about 20 MOORHENS. The JACKDAWS had taken a fancy to the owl box again I see. There was also a flock of 10 BARNACLE GEESE there which must have come in as I have not seen them there this year.
First pic with new camera.
