A photograph through a piece of woodland adjacent to the approach road near RSPB Minsmere in Suffolk. To the left a partially visible gorse in its yellow bloom and low focus. In the mid ground birch trees in various states of definition and focus as if sentries marching or standing firm blocking the passage through them, in my mind. Strong verticals of white, grey and black. Rising from the dull copper brush. 🤩

A photograph of a tiny long tailed tit - partially obscured by the prickly branches of the scrub it was hopping about. Such an absolute darling of a little bird. Taken on a dull-ish day brightened by the cute encounters. Suffolk.
A photograph of a finch with the softest peach coloured breast perched in similar scrub to the tiny tit. So very cute and obliging.

A photograph on a dull day of woodland aside the approach road. To a local RSPB site with good accessibility. Featuring stage left a gnarled trunk of a naked tree. To the right and set further back a very swat trunk even more gnarled and in my mind appearing like an aged upturned root given its deeper brown colour. It’s backed by a lush leaf adorned tree, triangular in shape. The ground is a beautiful warm brown of dried ferns.

“#SizewellC has got DCO approval to be built, but it doesn’t include these additional sea defences,” said @sayno2sizewellc.bsky.social. “That means they’ve never been assessed as to their environmental impact inc on RSPB #Minsmere or Sizewell hamlet.”

This isn't a Kestrel about to migrate across the sea from the dunes at RSPB #Minsmere #Suffolk but successfully hovering. Managed to hold station even while I had to hold onto my hat and stooped on prey twice while I was there.

Island Mere at RSPB Minsmere nature reserve, Suffolk
Otter! Another one of those special Island Mere moments at RSPB #Minsmere last night - watching an otter dive after fish! Kingfishers were chasing each other across the water, great egrets and marsh harriers were active and a bittern flew in to the reeds in front of the hide #otters #birding
Stone Curlew at Minsmere
Just had a fantastic trip to Minsmere, 3 days spent exploring the reserve and camping at Eastbridge Farm. Lots of pics to review to see if I captured anything special! #Minsmere #SuffolkBirding
A small fluffy hoverfly with large spotty eyes perched on a fence post.
Look into my eyes! 👀 I’ve got a feeling this #hoverfly was trying to hypnotise me with its magnificent gaze.

In 2022, Sam joined in protests against a power plant threatening RSPB's Minsmere refuge. 6300 species call it home.
Labor has just given it funding.

A smashing visit to @rspb.bsky.social #Minsmere yesterday. Highlights were booming Bitterns (with an exciting glimpse of one as it flew across a path ahead of us), a soaring White Stork, and these ultra-cool Sandwich Terns. I love their punky hairdos.
First time I’ve seen the ‘dance of the adder’ #digiscoped this morning at #minsmere
