Ham Wall RSPB - Sun 21 Feb

We decided on a trip to Ham Wall RSPB reserve this afternoon, parking in the car park at Ashcott Corner and walking east for a couple of miles along the old railway track. In fact we walked along as far as the tea rooms where we enjoyed a cup of tea and a flapjack.
Along we way we could hear a booming Bittern, a wonderful sound as it carried across the reedbeds. We also saw two hunting Marsh Harriers, both were females.
A couple of Redpolls were feeding in the top of some alders.
After a couple of hours we were back at the car after a pleasant afternoon walk.
