Great Knot in RSPB Titchwell Reserve
On Sunday 19 June 2016 we travelled to RSPB Titchwell reserve to see a Great Knot. It was a fairly straightforward twitch, as the bird was on one of the pools most of the time we were there.
It is always nice to get across to Norfolk and do a bit of birding before we came back.
This was my fourth new bird of the year and a great one to see. Great Knot is from Asia and also a bird you see in Australia, so a bird I could identify without any problem as I have seen it few times abroad including in Cairns, Queensland, Australia.
