Oldbury-on-Severn
A pleasant day for a walk along the Severn Estuary from Oldbury-on-Severn. Very grey to start but brightened up and quite warm by the time we made our way back to The Anchor.
Coffee in the lovely Community Shop and CafĂ© before we started and a pint of Bass in the Anchor at the end – nice way to celebrate a birthday.
A Kestrel in the distance was the first sighting.
Then a Curlew and a few Oystercatchers on the Estuary.
And then we turned inland and did a circuit of the lagoons near to the Power Station where we saw a Tufted Duck and chicks, Moorhen and Coot on the small lagoon and a Little Egret fly over. A good number of butterflies too.
Back at The Anchor I was trying to capture Beautiful Demoiselle in flight (again) when a Grey Wagtail came and posed in the stream.
