A look around the Lowestoft patch

First off from Lowestoft Asda, a Peregrine was seen perched right at the top of the east side of the grain silo and later on seen flying around. Driving to Hamilton Road, an initial look revealed little first 2 Cormorants seen then the Shag was seen fairly close in actively fishing. Next stop was Ness Point and the waves were lapping almost up the the compass and first one and then a total of 7 marvellous Purple Sandpipers looking resplendent in the bright light & were feeding just a metre or so away and were busy feeding up. They were feeding on the bladderwrack seaweed after invertebrates. Next stop was Corton wood, little at the pond but walking directly west down a path for 30 metres I heard a Crest lik call abnd revealed a fine Firecrest feeding around the ivy near the main trunk. Later on the Dunnock was singing in the garden which was lovely to hear.
