This #Oystercatcher was in an unusual location for such a bird - on the roof of the church of St Peter and St Paul in #Fakenham, which is an inland town (albeit only a few miles from the coast).

🐣 A flamingo who was described as having been "unlucky in love" has laid her first egg at a #nature reserve aged 70

Gertrude is part of a flamboyance of more than 65 #flamingos at #Pensthorpe #nature reserve near #Fakenham, #Norfolk

Ben Marshall, the reserve's managing director, said: "Flamingos might live 40 years and Gertrude is 70, so [at] that ripe old age to be able to display [maternal] characteristics is amazing."
