Just to tell you how much Elizabeth and I enjoyed the Norfolk trip and to say thank you for all your hard work. We managed to cover a good number of reserves, saw some lovely birds, had a great time and all at a relaxed pace.

food – good value. We were taken to all the premier bird reserves and the
boat trip from Morston Quay was especially memorable seeing the diving
terns, red breasted merganser and seals resting up on the shore.”
