Near Ormesby I watched a Male Marsh Harrier flying around. It then saw a Mallard carcass in the field, which it then tried to fly off with, unfortunately it was to heavy. It then proceeded to rip it apart in the company of 2 Carrion Crows.

A walk down the beach didn’t produce much so decided to give Ormesby broad a look , it was frozen over but a lovely Kingfisher sat patiently in the only open part. At Clippesby/Oby there were 41 Crane near a maize crop, great to hear there “whooping” the most I’ve seen #NorfolkBirds
