On a recent (and increasingly rare) trip back to England I visited some good friends at Blakeney on the North Norfolk coast. The whole coast is a birding paradise with Cley, Holme and Titchwell all close. I took a trip out on my friends boat to the tip of Blakeney Point where there is a colony of both
grey seal and
common seal.
It was a fairly choppy day and on the way out we saw
sandwich tern,
common tern and
little tern together with common seabirds such as
common gull and
cormorant.
there were a good number of seals at the point basking in the sun and several of the more inquisitive individuals came out to have a look at our boat giving plenty of photo opportunities.
