A bitty last day...

Last days of holiday are always hard. First because it is the last day and second, because we've usually done the things we really want to earlier in the week. So a bitty day - a check in at Titchwell as we were driving past, then a walk along the sea wall from Cley to Blakeney and finally an hour on Stiffkey salt marsh in the late afternoon sun. 

At Titchwell we had good views of the Water Rail again, at Cley we got rather damp, courtesy of a passing squall and then at Stiffkey Marsh we dried out in the afternoon sun....it was still cold mind, while being treated to a raptor spectacle.
