Black-bellied Dipper

 Myself TG, DW and GH who was our brilliant chauffeur today twitched the superb Black-bellied Dipper today at Thetford. It performed admirably from the moment we arrived all be it in the heavy shade, where it caught many Caddisfly larva. It was amazingly tolerant of birders and photograghers  showing down to a few feet.
 A couple of hours spent looking for Otters was fruitless, even though just about every resident of Thetford seemed to have seen them. One lady out for a walk with her mother, produced her I Phone and showed us a video she took on it yesterday, of 2 Otters playing just a feet from her in the river. We did manage to see a Kingfisher several times, Marsh, Coal, Long-tailed, Blue and Great Tits, Brambling, nuthatch and Treecreeper.
