Disappointing day for birds

On Saturday 23rd december, the forecast was for sunny intervals, so I was keen to get out and about and get some pics of the Divers in sunny weather,, I tried Hamilton Dock, Ness Point and then Lake Lothing and Oulton Broad, but no birds were seen. At the Cruising Club along Lake Lothing I saw 2 newly emerged rosettes of Bee Orchids. Travelling back from Yarmouth along the A47 nacreous clouds, which was a new cloud formation for me, were seen. later in the afternoon, I tried Hamilton Dock but the Diver had disappeared again. The sunset though was really good looking south- east. Back home, the sunset was even better.
