Quiet on the North Denes

On Saturday 27th March, having just had my second anti COVID-19 vaccination jab, courtesy of James Paget Hospital (very efficient job as usual), early morning, I looked around the North Denes at Lowestoft, nothing seen, saving for 6 Linnets by the bush middle of the Denes, 22 Linnets in the fenced off static carvan development site and a further 18 around the Netposts. Pity with the million or so spent on the North Denes park they couldn't have replaced the broken, rotting netposts a key part of Lowestoft's Herring fishing industy. A look mid afternoon for the iceland failed to reveal it (my fifth try for it) although 6 Purple Sandpipers seen on the rocks. At Gunton Church field, no sign of it there either (4th attempt).
