We head to Covehithe Broad to try to pick up a year tick with some Shore larks.
Parking in a lay- by near the old ruins we take a not to unpleasant walk down to the beach & spot 3 Shore lark within a few minutes.
We spend a good few hours just watching these busy little birds going about their life & not taking to much notice of us, they just carry on feeding, the camera was working over time.
When we had had our fill of the Larks we set of to Thorpeness so Jimmy & myself could pick up another year tick in the Tundra Bean Goose reported there yesterday.
After parking we scan the fields but can only spot Barnacle Geese & many Greylag, we think maybe they have flown but a fellow comes over to tell us that he had just seen them in a field over the back, so off we hike over some very prickly rough ground but we get our reward when we spot 15 of them quite a long way off but with great scope views well worth the hike.
