The remains, I'm guessing, of the white webs of last year's Brown-Tail Moth caterpillars (Euproctis Chrysorrhoea) on Sea Buckthorn |
We took a 'brisk' walk at Bawdsey on the Suffolk coast yesterday afternoon. It was too chilly to hang about for long . . . though milder than Philadelphia!
We saw a field of swans - probably Mute Swans, but they were a way off and so busy eating that I couldn't see their bills.
The light on the mere and by the martello tower was amazing. You can see at least three of these towers from this vantage point.
David took the photo above for me of Bawdsey Quay.
We really enjoyed watching the fly-pasts of skeins of geese.
The sunset was simply stunning!
We were really surprised to see two rafts of Mallard on the sea. Does anyone know whether this is at all unusual? Were they fishing, do you suppose? In any case, they suddenly took to the air . . .
... when a seal popped up!
It didn't hang about, so we drove home for a cup of tea.
