Migrant-fest

An early morning thrash of Waxham revealed none of the goodies from earlier in the week, but a delightful couple of hours was had before work beckoned. We were knee-deep in Whitethroats and tits (Long-tailed and Blue) at times, with the odd Reed and Sedge Warbler thrown in for good measure, plus a handful of Lesser throats, Blackcaps and a solitary Phyllosc; a Chiffchaff. A couple of Wheatears were around the pipedump, where an overflying Lapland Bunt failed to be nailed satisfactorily.
All in all, lots of fun and left us wanting more, which is how birding should be.
