Corporation Marshes, Walberswick, Suffolk

05 Nov 2010 226
This is a view over the Corporation Marshes, Walberswick, Suffolk looking southerly towards Dunwich Forest on relatively high ground in the distance. A depression with its associated warm from is rapidly moving in from the west. It was raining within three hours of this photo being taken. The North Sea is just out of shot, over the shingle bank on the left. This whole area is a Nature Reserve, home of bittern, marsh harrier and avocet, among others. The tower of the derelict Walberswick wind pump is visible just right of centre. At times of high spring tides coinciding with a tidal surge down the North Sea, this area is flooded by the sea. Just a little way further south, towards Dunwich, the Environment Agency plans to discontinue maintaining the shingle bank sea defence and let the area revert to estuary.

It was a mistyfogs autumn morning, the air full of moisture, dreich - except this is Yorkshire, not Scotland. My favourite beeches in the Limb Valley on the south west side of Sheffield looked lovely.
