Lound Lakes, I call it Suffolk.

Bright with a chill and a South Westerly breeze. Arrived to find hide closed, looks like someone may have gone in the drink. Turned round and headed to the Southern end only to find it closed as well. So went on further only to find it closed due to deep mud. So went on and found gate locked, so went on. What's wrong with expedition on the day the British explorer dies in Antarctica.

On arrival a single REED BUNTING a female and then  a fly over GREEN WOODPECKER. Plenty of GREY LAG GEESE with 178 birds counted and also plenty of GADWALL, some MALLARD and 20+ SHOVELER AND AT LEAST 40+ TUFTED DUCK also COOT and MOORHEN. I also had 18 GOLDCREST and CHAFFINCH, ROBIN only 3 WREN. JAY 2, MAGPIE, CARRION CROW, COAL TIT 3, LONG TAILED TIT, BLUE TIT, GREAT TIT, CHAFFINCH, But the best bird was a lovely male BULLFINCH did not stay around for long but at least it flew in front of me. I also had a single COMMON BUZZARD flying at the West end.
I also went through the gulls and although nothing to shout about gulls do have a tendency to just fascinate.

Green Lane, Somerlyton:  A group of finches near Green Farm but only CHAFFINCH identified. LONG TAILED TIT, BLUE TIT, GREAT TIT, as well as a single KESTREL.
