Ellie and I set off to the Somerset Levels after lunch to enjoy a nice walk at Ham Wall. We parked at Ashcott Corner car park and walked out to the tea rooms at Sharpham. Along the way we saw at least four Great White Egrets in the reeds. The usual wildfowl were on the water, Shoveler, Teal, etc. and a single Lapwing was seen.
After a cup of tea and piece of cake at the tea rooms we returned to the car. A Treecreeper showed well in small trees alongside the path and a Snipe flew over, and we also saw a couple of Roe Deer. No sign of any Bitterns though, but nice to get out and about in the fresh air, especially after spending most of the morning in the car!
