A good start to our stay in Norfolk with a Sunday morning stroll from the beautiful coastal village of Blakeney towards Cley along the Norfolk Coast path with views of redshank (and chicks), oystercatcher, avocet (and chicks), little egret, reed bunting, buzzard, marsh harrier, lapwing, little ringed plover (and chicks), black-headed gulls, greylag geese (and goslings) and starlings.
