If the weather would of been dry and bright, I would of gone to see the Black- bellied Dipper in Thetford but as it was cold, dull and snow on the ground I went on the patch and as patch birding goes it wasn't that bad. Woodcock was the bird of the day and showed quite well on the deck running around in the snow but always obscured by the undergrowth of the wood near Berwick ponds, 11 Golden Plover was also seen as was a single Chiffchaff, Bullfinch, 3 siskin and about 8 Common Snipe. The only bird I would like to see is Bittern on the patch at the moment as I've put in some time in for it but still no joy!
