Kirton Creek
|
Last time we visited the village of Hemley, the footpath down to Kirton Creek was closed for maintenance. Last weekend we managed to get a little closer, but were forced to turn back by a waterlogged marsh, almost certainly on account of the combination of a particularly high tide and the storm winds. But we will try again, probably in the summer when the path should be more passable.
I failed to get a photograph, but it was good to see a Marsh Harrier. These birds were so rare during my teenage years in Norfolk, but are not an uncommon site in this part of the world - if you are in the right habitat.

Look at all that blue sky! Another great day to be out.
I enjoyed seeing your photographs, and I agree with Wilma, what a wonderful blue sky.
All the best Jan
Lovely photos, Caroline and a great sighting of the marsh harrier. I've only ever seen one once, oddly enough in Shetland. No-one at first believed me, so I doubted myself until I read a rare bird report of a marsh harrier up there.
Such lovely photos, what a delightful place to visit. All good wishes.
