Corton Wagtails & Muntjac
After the net Posts I had decided to check out Corton in the hope of finding my own White Wags in the field just south of the OSW, I met Rob Wil, who said there was a flock of 11 Wagtails with at least 2 White wagtails. My hunch had been proved correct, scanning Rob and I saw 2 fine smart adult male White wagtails, with typical pale grey backsharply demarcated black cap, and white flanks (not grey smudged) after Rob had left I also saw a female White Wagtail (black cap merged into pale grey back and again white flanks (no grey smudging) and a third adult male White Wagtail, totalling 4 White Wagtails in all, the flock had grown to 13! Walking back to the Churchyard, some tinkling 3 Goldfinches, with one of their number briefly posing for the camera, as did a female Muntjac Deer nonchalantly feeding in the north- east corner of the churchyard which enabhled me to get more Muntjac pics and finally in the north- west corner of the churchyard I heard and then saw a Chiff-Chaff singing and moving through the top of a tree in the hedgerow. [The pic of the Male Muntjac was taken at the Lowestoft Net Posts Bramble patch earlier in the day, I couldn't fit it onto the previous post!]
