Mega FTW at Walberswick

On Saturday 3rd August, a mega alert for a Zitting Cisticola or Fan-tailed Warbler found by Walberwick at the Corporation Marshes, around 800 yards south of the Harbour in Buckthorn clump had me within 30 minutes picking up James Wright and we were heading down to the App pay car park at Walberwick beach, only problem was I had the app but there was no signal to pay. Fortunately a very kind birder from Saxmundham who I have met before but sadly don't know his name, paid for me with the app on his phone and I paid him £4 cash. This is a real major problem for me as I effectively can't use this car park. We walked along the beach, where typically Paul & Jane were just ahead of us and James B, Andrew E and Robery Wil plus David W were all their in group huddled at the top of the coastal walk path over looking the reedbed, some dykes and the large buckthorn patch. After about 20 minutes I could hear the distinctive zip-zip-zip of the Fan-tailed Warbler but I couldn't locate it flying high in the sky, my eyesight isn't as good as it was and I struggle to see tiny dots in the sky. However James W had picked it up and brilliantly described which part of the sky it was, in this case blue sky and I picked up this fantastic bird. Everyu 10- 20 minutes it repeated this pattern first flying 300 yards south and then back 300 yards north. One time it even perched on the extreme northern end of the Buckthorn patch and I scoped it and noted the streaky back with short tail, which was also seen as being short and fanned in flight. Hence it's old name. Walking back a fine juvenile Dunling huddled on the pebbly beach and I was able to get a few shots of that.
