Fowlmere to Fulmar

Was just about to head to visit parent’s in Suffolk with family when I had the urge to pop to the hide at Fowlmere. Got there and there was a Marsh Harrier and a Red Kite in the air together. Stated walking around to the hide when I got an obscure message about a Fulmar at Wilstone. Twenty minutes and several phone calls later my plans had changed and I was on the way in the opposite direction into West Herts. Got the Fulmar before heading off, rather later than scheduled to Suffolk.
