Walks-RSPB- Marshside-Southport.

A very windy walk across the marshes to see some Meadow pipits. I was rewarded with them and also a Skylark which was most exciting. My Merlin app couldn't keep up with the wind noise so I gave up. Maybe I need to buy one of those fluffy things you see people wearing on tv.

Quite a lot of Evening primrose was still around and some lovely apple trees.

I am very intrigued by rogue apple trees and how they grow in the most desolate of places no bother. I like how a once thrown core has ended up living for years, constantly producing apples with hardly any human interaction.

I didn’t venture to the hides as it was really windy, in a ‘I cannot walk any further into it, it hurts my teeth’ kind of wind, which for July is quite unsettling.

However, there is always autumn with its mists so I will revisit then. Maybe with an added fluffy thing.
