A month ago I witnessed this godwit bonanza at Snettisham RSPB reserve in Norfolk as birds congregated before heading north to their breeding grounds. Or so I thought, until I saw a similar spectacle at Titchwell last weekend, presumably non-breeding birds summering in The Wash but pushed out by a particularly high tide or the weather conditions. Interestingly both the May and June flocks contained some Icelandic Black-tailed Godwits.
