Red Kite and Golden Plover

On Thursday 13th November, travelling back from training at Kirkeley Mill I was driving north along the A47 at Millenium Way just about to reach the Corton Long Lane roundabout, at 12.25pm a fine Red Kite flew over. (I later learned that James W. had just tweeted 2 had flown north- west from Gunton, surely this was one of his birds). It soared over Corton Long Lane roundabout then drifted west towards Blundeston. As I was leaving the Paget walking to the back car park, at 5.23pm I heard 7 mournful plaintive 'peuu' calls of a Golden Plover flying east directly overhead but I couldn't see it (it was pitch dark!).
