Tour around RSPB Minsmere in Suffolk. Looking for geese ducks birds and wildlife #sea #birds #tour

Today’s tour of the reserve took me 4 hours and I walked 3.75 miles. This time includes stopping in bird hides to film the birds.
There’s a whole array of wintering birds here. Pintail, gadwall, wigeon, avocets, Whooper swans, barnacle geese, godwit, Goosander, gold crest and many more.
While at reserves, you always meet other like minded people. All friendly and happy to share what they have seen.
Walking in a nature reserve is a great way to get exercise and improve your physical health. The fresh air, natural surroundings and walking, helps reduce stress and improves your overall wellbeing. When you chat to people in the hides, you often here that they have taken up this new hobby, as it helps them with their stress …
Spending time in nature can provide a sense of peace and tranquility, helping to reduce stress and improve mental health.
Winter is a unique time of year, with different animals and plants in the nature reserve, and a change in the appearance of the landscape. The changing colours and patterns of the winter landscape are great for filming and taking photographs.
Walking in the reserve during winter provides an opportunity to observe the different birds and geese that survive in the colder months.

Do go along to your local RSPB reserve, they work extremely hard to protect the birds and provide a great place for you to see the wildfowl close up.
