Overnight at Paul's again, in the morning he took us to St. Faith's Forest north of Norwich, where he showed us a Tawny Owl's nest he had been monitoring, which contained a female on three eggs. Also in the forest we saw 5 Roe Deer and 2 Muntjak.

2016

On a visit to Cornwall to stay with Neil and Ella Hipkiss, Neil and I spent most of the day at Perranuthnoe and Mounts Bay.

There was no sign of the Hudsonian Whimbrel but we did see 20+ Shags, 2 Black-throated Divers, a Great Northern Diver, around 20 Turnstone, a Guillemot and 6 Little Egrets.

Then a drive around the bay, stopping at various points, but we still couldn't find the Pacific Diver!
