Martin sighted near Breydon Water

08 Jun 2011

Martin’s stay in Caister was short-lived – by early morning of 7 June he had returned north to the area inland from Winterton Dunes that he had been in previously. He also briefly visited Hickling Broad – he and Kasper appear to now have over-lapping homes ranges.

An interesting sighting of a Cuckoo “with a wire sticking out of its back” near Breydon Water (very close to where we tagged Martin) on 29th May was reported to BTO by Nick Richardson
 

Martin stays in Norfolk

06 Jun 2011

Martin remained in the area next to Breydon Water that he had been tagged in until the morning of 29th May, when he moved 11km north to Winterton Dunes. He remained in this general area, moving up to 6km (4 miles) inland at times, until the morning of Sunday 5th June when he moved back towards his original location and had reached at least as far as Caister-on-Sea.
