Sunday Picture Post: Beside the Yare

17th May 2023, we head out to a new destination. Marston Marshes is a 26ha nature reserve on the floodplain of River Yare on the outskirts of Norwich. We’re excited.

We’re used to grazing marshes, but this is different. Very civilised with proper paths and gates

We’ve time it just right for the typical fen and wetland flora

and a delightful family of geese

These marshes are grazed (but not today) and hence the many gates. And look, no muddy feet!

The River Yare rises in central Norfolk, and joins the sea at Great Yarmouth. In these early stretches it is an exceptionally clean chalkland river

The very place to sit and dream…seats provided!

And plenty of trees to provide shade

Keswick Mill sits on the far side

What could be more delightful than a flower-specked meadow

And a wonderful wizened willow!

Hope you enjoyed. We did. Blooms and Bugs to come, see Tuesday Treats
