A local Black Redstart, Tivetshall St Mary, 6 November 2016

After the excitement of yesterday and with the weather due to close in by late morning I popped across the A140 for half an hour this morning. It took about 20 minutes but eventually the female/1w male Black Redstart popped up on the fence of the farmhouse next to Owl Barn and showed in a few spots. Due to the distance and me not wanting to disturb the residents on a Sunday morning I couldn't get any pics. Birds were everywhere in Rectory Road - a couple of small groups of Fieldfares on the move, 3 Song Thrushes, 2 Bullfinches, c20 Goldfinches, Common Buzzard and 2 Grey Wagtails over.

The photo below may help anyone looking for it

    No problem Jack! Glad to hear it's still about. I'd like to try to get a photo but it'll involve knocking on their door and asking I think!

    Yes, I did think, but I wasn't brave enough!
