Tuesday 28th February (Titchwell)


Mr. Kite looked out of The Joint window into a grandstand where collared doves were gently cooing. A nearby rookery was coming to life with hundred of noisy birds.

Today Mr. Kite and His Lady went to Titchwell the well known RSPB reserve. On a pleasant day Mr. Kite ambled around spotting the usual and expected birds from the hides and footpaths. Once again Mr. Kite pointed The Superscope out to see where a group of goldeneye fed. But the occasional common scoter was spotted a pair of long-tailed ducks.

In the late afternoon it was time to go and on the return to the car park a marsh harrier flew over the reeds and a bittern put in an appearance for good measure. With fifty species spotted and thousands of birds watched Mr. Kite and His Lady had a good day. Later as he listened to owls Mr. Kite enjoyed a tipple of Wychwood Hobgoblin. Cheers.
