As I was turning the grand old age of 50 and I was off work for the week we made an impromptu visit to Norfolk to see my dad and step-mum and to take the kids to the beach.
After arriving we headed straight to the beach at Caister-on-Sea. A handful of Sandwich Tern were feeding just offshore and an adult Mediterranean Gull was scouring the beach for food scraps. But the unusual sight of a summer plumaged Great Northern Diver heading north was a tad unseasonal.
The following day we popped to Hemsby so the kids could spend their grandads money in the arcade and have another visit to the beach. More Sandwich Terns were seen and a 1st Winter Mediterranean Gull was seen but the highlight was 3 female/juvenile Garganey going south.
