    I didn't post the location on here because the 'moral majority' tend to get all twitchy, even about sites such as this that are well known and written about all over the 'net... There was an RSPB officer carrying out a check on tags: if you see any tagged birds, she'd like to hear about it...

    Kingfishers I'm meeting an old friend from Brighton at Woodbridge next week: he is desperate to see a Kingfisher! I know reliable spots in Norfolk, but none in Suffolk... Can anyone help? Is Melton a good bet? Or Orford? Thanks in anticipation!
