Southwold

When we left for our ride out to Southwold we turned immediately onto Denmark Road, only to find so much violence I might need counselling. I know that at times Lowestoft has a bad reputation but this was outrageous. There at the side of the road on the payment they where engaged in mortal combat. With legs engaged in what  could only be called a death embraces. Looking at each other eyeball to eye ball and neither willing to give in there they lie doing battle. Of course they where only MAGPIES. So going to rewritable Southwold would be literally a piece of cake.


Best bird was a RUFF a single bird amongst BARNACLE GEESE which where in there normal grazing area. Interspersed with WIGEON, MALLARD and B-H-GULLS. Out at sea a large movement of RED-T-DIVER all seemingly heading north. On levels a single CANADA GOOSE and  a small flock of DUNLIN feeding. LAPWING I should imagine about 150 birds. At Kessingland levels aside the A12 a COMMON BUZZARD was hanging in the wind.
