A grey moening & a low tide, but still worth the exercise walk. The wading birds still had several fly arounds. Usual Dunlin & Grey Plover out on the mudflats & just about in reach withe max zoom. Highlight was 2 male Pintail ducks on the south pool. Do not see them here often, no females that I could see. The one on right in photos is I think a juvenile as plumage is not fully developed & it was following the adult closely.

Bright sunny morning with cold wind. Water level high on fresmarsh @ Titchwell. None of the island visable, not so many birds there but a mixed group of wigeon & teal did fly in. On way home saw a Gull with quite a daek neck ring that I cannot ID. Then found a small group of Pinkfeet geese & another small group flew in to join them (video of this)
