SPOONBILL success

The North Norfolk EURASIAN SPOONBILL colony at Holkham Freshmarshes has this year broken all records with as many as 10 youngsters expected to fledge before mid August. The thriving egret, spoonbill and heron colony at the National Nature Reserve is really reaping rewards, with such a colony of tree-nesting Spoonbills not being recorded in Britain for over 300 years.
