Description

MinsmereBest viewed as Full Screen.
Minsmere is a wildlife reserve situated on the coast of Suffolk, East Anglia, UK ==> http://www.rspb.org.uk/discoverandenjoynature/seenature/reserves/guide/m/minsmere/ that will be familiar to many UK deviants through the BBC series Springwatch broadcast from the reserve each May. Run by the Royal Society for the Protection of birds, the RSPB, Minsmere is primarily about providing wetland and woodland habitats for local and migrating birds, but it also provides a home for many types of flora, insects, reptiles, fish and animals. All the species found at Minsmere can be found elsewhere along the coast of East Anglia, but not in such a concentration nor in a conservation area with so much provision for viewing such as hides and boardwalks.
This Journal is a small collection of images from a 4 hour stroll around the reserve, and includes shots of some familiar species, and some rare and elusive birds. The images were taken on a Canon 5D Mark III ca

I've only ever heard them on the Broads, moored up overnight on our hired sailing boat.
