Saturday 9th January, the day dawns bright. The Met Office claims low wind speeds. Great, a good day for a walk.
It’s late before I set out but the overnight frost remains thick on the ground
With covid lockdown re-enforced, travel’s restricted… Breydon Water here I come
The 10,000+ widgeons and teal makes quite a pleasant noise. That’s them, looking like the druids facing the Romans across the Menai Straits (Wales). Btw, the tide is ebbing
Patterns in the flow
Cobholm Common lies alongside Breydon
The “road” to the common; it’s been flooded the past 2 months, but not today
Love this scene… so wintry
Visual pun. I’ve been losing weight of late. I’ve lost my “spare tyre”
Breydon… low tide
Reeds… so many shots I take of reeds
A different view of the marshes
The Marsh Road to Burgh Castle. Of a sudden, the cold hits hard
Berney Arms mill as seen from Burgh Castle
No, that’s not the same mill. No sails. Loads of birds though. Care to count them? For those with an interest, they’re mostly Black-Tailed Godwits
The mudflats change according to the light; it’s now afternoon and the tide is flowing
Sunset is at 4:00 pm. There’s an hour to go
Nearly home…
And back to the beginning, Haven Bridge at sunset
Hope you enjoyed, and you’re feeling as warm and toasty as I am… if a little weary
Beautiful!

Thanks, Dale. Nature does the work. I merely see it, and point the camera.

Reflections of the sky. I’ve seen that water looking very murky-grey!

Ooh, you got some great shots on this walk! I especially loved the wintry scene with the frosty reeds (grasses?) and the one with the clouds reflected in the water.

Yes, they’re reeds. I took so many shots of reeds. It is as well that I like reeds, for this area abounds in them!

Yup, I think I’m attracted to roads going to the distance

I softly chuckle… cos to we Brits all American roads wind endlessly into the distance. That is the stereotypical view

Well, what kind of road doesn’t go into the distance eventually?

I had a frosty walk this morning, so my body recalled that as I ‘walked’ with you!
