I decided to take a trip (again) to Martin-mere, it was pretty icy and quite chilly but still enjoyable like it always is. Every time I go I can never resist the Hawaiian/Nene Geese (shame you can't get them as pets, otherwise I would probably own a few!)
Along with these little guys...
After wondering around I went to watch the Whooper Swans for a bit, not as many as last time I was there in the beginning of December last year, but a lot are still around along with Pink-footed Geese, Coots (as always), Lapwing, ducks - Mallard and a lot of Shelduck!
Below are my two favourite photo's from today:
and when walking back to the car I spotted this little Robin - nice end to the day!
I really like it at Martin Mere. It's amazing when the bigger flocks fly in with all their noise. From Findlay.
ReplyDeleteYeah same here, especially the Whooper Swans at the moment. I spent about an hour or two just watching and listening to them.
ReplyDeleteLovely photographs. Never been to Martin mere is that where they have a reed bed kayaking experience?.
ReplyDeleteThanks! They have something called 'Canoe Safari', not open all year round though.
