28th January 2011 Hiking - Walking: Snape Wind Direction: Wind Stength: Surf / Sea State: Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: sunny periods Max Speed: Distance Covered: Approx 5 m Packed our lunch and set off at ten,started the day with breakfast at Levington marina where we read the papers and then headed over to Snape where we parked at the Maltings for free :) Ask at the RSPB where we could see a 'murmuration' thats a flock of starlings to you and me !!!! and he said maybe Bythburgh at about 4 if we were lucky.So we have our rolls by the quay - in the van as it's very cold :( and not so sunny as forecast !!! We then wrap up warm and head along the marshes past Iken Cliffs and end up at Iken Church,sadly you can't get down close to the river but we did see a large highland bull :) and hundreds of wading birds and gulls !!! We walked back a little way on the road and were lucky enough to see a Barn Owl fly around us a couple of times :) We completed our 5 mile walk in about 2 hours and headed to Bythburgh to see if we could find the starlings !!! After riding around for abit with no luck we parked on the Walberswick road had a tea and watched the sunset :) Then we tried the Southwold road and came across a few birdwatchers at Hen Reedbeds,we parked and got a quick glimpse of a mini murmuration :) as a small flock of starlings danced at dusk !!! So a top top day even if the sun did'nt play ball much :( http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2089300&id=1012660562&l=04fc855a07 |
