The highlight today was undoubtedly the small flock of four Bee-eaters that appeared calling over the pines adjacent to the Observatory building. Nice views were obtained by the lucky few present, before the birds heading off east towards Thornham. A Spoonbill was on the Broadwater in front of the car park hide early afternoon.
