Nice day :) up early with breakfast and lunch packed and Mag and I were at
Levington Marina just before 7 in the morning to watch the sun rise !!!
With hardly a clould in the sky but chilly we enjoyed tea and hot pastries
with several birds flying past including a couple of curlews and lots of
cormorants and we were joined by a seal in the marina channel, we had
already seen 6 deer by the road on the way into the marina :) We then
donned our walking boots and wrapped up warm and headed for the bird hide
on the 'winter flood' on Trimley Marshes.I saw several long tailed tits and
there were lots of waders by Levington Creek :) With the tide high we were
expecting to see more but it was a bit quiet apart from some Brent Geese.We
made it to the hide after nearly an hour to be joined by 4 real
'birdwatchers' with loads of kit who spent their time trying to out-do each
other on who had seen what !!! The highlight of the hide visit was seeing 2
foxes ,a ruff and a little owl !!! We had to leave the hide in the end when
one of the birdwatchers started counting starlings !!! the tide was now on
the way out and there were several boats out enjoying the sunshine even if
the breeze was light. We made it back to the van after being out for over 4
hours for soup before returning home to watch the rugby on tv - top day :)
