A damp start to the autumn walk this afternoon, luckily the rain soon eased off. There were great views of Curlew, Little Egret and Grey Seal through the spotting scope at Longis Baye. The highlight of our walk was a Cattle Egret on Longis reserve, giving great views as the Egret hunted insects around the cows. Hilary was waiting at Wells House with tea and cakes to finish the walk. Thank you to all that attended for coming along and everyone behind the scenes for looking after us.
