Isabelline Wheatear. at Cley.

We have a limited time to visit Cley in Norfolk today,with Brian needing to be home by lunch time.
So we arrive at Arnold's marsh around first light in search of the Isabelline Wheatear.
Only a few birders about on a really cold windy morning,it takes us a good hour of searching before the target bird shows.
At first it is seen sitting on a fence post but not for long as it flies off to sit on the ridge over looking the sea.
Great scope views as it sits out in good light,then it's off again & does the same pattern over the next hour that we watch it.
As we found the Wheatear fairly quickly we have enough time to head to Wells to get really great flight views of a Rough - legged Buzzard, we don't need this for a tick but always worth giving up some time to watch these fabulous birds.
So a short visit but a really enjoyable one.
