Got to see the hornemanni Arctic Redpoll at Aldeburgh, Suffolk. Great little bird. Amazing views of it on the beach when I arrived and continued to perform for twenty minutes or so before it flew into the marsh.
Didn’t stay as views were exceptional. Had my lunch on the beach in the sun watching the Black-headed Gulls and then drove back home to get on with some work.
There were also 26 Waxwings at the “McDonalds” in Whittlesford so I stopped to have a quick look. Was still thick fog inland.
Then found the Fowlmere Road ones whilst driving into Foxton (about 40).
Several Fieldfares were feeding on the lawn with Blackbirds. Took a very poor picture through a dirty window and thick fog!
