I finally decided to put a bit of effort into a seawatch today as there were a few common seabirds missing from my list. An hour was more than enough on top of Gorleston dunes with 2 adult Kittiwakes, 4 Common Scoter and a Bonxie all to show for my efforts, sea watching is going to be hard work here!! A Common Sandpiper near the pier helped beat the boredom. The walk home through the golf course, Hobland woods and Jew lane manage to boost my list to 99 with Willow Warbler, Marsh Tit, Red-legged Partridge and 2 Yellow Wagtails. A few Chiffs and Blackcaps helped bring a spring feel in the bitter NW wind. The walk ended with a Pheasant fight, its the first time I have been remotely interested in Pheasants!
