Beardies, a Reed Bed Delight.

 With the constant rain that we are enduring at present, trips out with the camera are now very few and far between. Stodmarsh is under water and walking the pathways are hazardous with wellies a must. A trip in the company of Tim Gutsell down to the Marsh Hide from the Stodmarsh end of the reserve was uneventful except for a dozen Cattle Egrets that looked to touch down by the river between the Water Meadows and the Oxbow and a small group of Bearded Tits in the Reed Bed that offered a bit of action with the camera on the way back from the hide.
