I think this is a Norfolk Hawker dragonfly. It was doing a few laps around the reeds and into a little clearing out the window of the Island Mere hide at Minsmere.

A Robin perched on a post to finish the day at Minsmere.

The marsh Harriers were too distant and we tried to follow the sounds of a Green Woodpecker but couldn’t catch sight of it, after a wait we headed for the car and home.

After waiting a while for the Bitterns we decided to move on. Near the ramp to the Island Mere hide was a Cetti’s Warbler flying between three trees.

We slowly moved towards the middle tree when it wouldn’t notice us and eventually I managed to get a few shots!

A Heron in the reed beds at Minsmere. We could hear Bittern booming occasionally but weren’t lucky enough to see them this time.

A couple of weeks ago we visited RSPB Minsmere. Just as we got to the top of the Bittern hide a Kingfisher showed up!

Back in September we took a trip to Minsmere. While at the Island Mere hide a Snipe came wandering out of the tall reeds to take a look about.
