Hi guys I am going to snettisham tomorrow.
Never been before , so need advice on where to park and where to go. ..?
I presume the hides are the best place for knot pics.
Going to get there early 5.30am .
Cheers

Hello Mate
Give us a bell I have only just picked up your email.
Speaking to the RSPB today, about this mornings show, it would appear that the weather is against it for Saturday and the knot numbers this morning were only about 5000 in total, most of which went north.

Just done the last 3 tides. Sunset on thurs was the best, but the evening tide is now too late for light. Yesterday morning was a wash out.
As Tom says, Knot no's are low and they were heading north and not to the pools. Lots of oystercatchers were heading to the pools though - more than I've ever seen before.

'What a long walk too'
Feels even longer when someone drives past you while you're struggling with your gear
