Oxburgh House - National Trust: 14th May 2019

Oxburgh Hall
National Trust

Had been here before, but this visit was slightly disappointing as the entire central court of the house was boarded up, had temporary mobile toilets installed and was a mass of scaffolding... and the big chandelier in the saloon was in pieces for cleaning... however, was still an enjoyable visit and plenty of photo opportunities!

Brandon Marsh & Attenborough Nature Reserve: Easter 2019

EASTER 2019

Brandon Marsh & Attenborough Marsh

A lovely sunny Easter so most tourist attraction will be crowded... so... 4 trips out Birdwatching to avoid the crowds

The first set of images are from Brandon Marsh and Attenborough Nature Reserve. Brandon Marsh was in search of a Kingfisher which was conspicuous by it's absence, but catching a Treecreeper more than made up for it.

Attenborough was to see the Egyptian Geese and their goslings... and getting a bonus of Sand Martins
