Bridge Cottage Ramblings

Monday 6th August 2007 The first 'rambling' posted here! Took a stroll from Bridge Cottages down to the coast at Kelling Hard this morning. Not too much to report on the wildlife viewing front. High cloud hanging around but still a lot of butterflies on the wing. Small Skipper, Ringlet, Meadow Brown, Gatekeeper and Red Admiral all active on Kelling Heath. Peacock, Painted Lady and Large Whites at Kelling Quags. Birding very quiet only a solitary Golden Plover of note by the coast. Willow Warbler on Muckleburgh Hill. Sparrowhawk above. Great views along the coast towards Blakeney and beyond though as the sun broke through. Young family staying at no.3 this week had a great day 'crabbing' at Blakeney harbour yesterday. The boys enjoyed themselves so much that they are planning to have another go today. PS
