I like the walk in the other direction from Wells-next-the-Sea too, south along the Peddars Way to Stiffkey - every time we've walked along there we've seen barn owls. Thanks for visiting, and bet wishes, PhilPhilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15609107148344256875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4998479738444661160.post-43648097351232512862014-05-25T11:54:07.329+00:002014-05-25T11:54:07.329+00:00Hi I have lived here most of my life and feel so l...Hi I have lived here most of my life and feel so lucky to have done so. I have a walk I have to do every year at least once , parking at the holiday camp car park I walk along the beach to Holkham and return by the path which is just the other side of the dunes just inside the dutch pines. It is my visit to paradise for the day my boys love it too. Try it on your next visit.

Wells is a good base - walks into good birding territory in either direction along the coast .. lots of brent geese and little egrets last week, plus a marsh harrer. Always something interesting at Titchwell ..... first time I set foot in the place, a couple of years ago, there was a turtle dove sitting on the visitor centre roof (the first and only time I've seen one). We plan to go back in July.Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15609107148344256875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4998479738444661160.post-20934860823296657572010-04-25T10:29:51.316+00:002010-04-25T10:29:51.316+00:00Have just returned from a week in Norfolk myself P...Have just returned from a week in Norfolk myself Phil and i am catching up on my blogs having been internetless. What a fantastic county, not just for birding but for all things in nature. I was based just south of Norwich on the River Yare and although it was basically a family break managed some early morning and evening sorties. I did however have a full days birding allowed and had planned to visit Cley, Blakeney, Wells etc and Titmarsh. I got no further than Cley Marshes and spent the whole day there. Superb. I am enjoying your accounts of your own visit and reading about some of the places i never managed to get to. A visit to the area again is a must, as i'm sure you would agree.<br />Cheers<br />JohnJohnnykinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12076909025101532481noreply@blogger.com
