We visited the Ham Wall nature reserve this morning. It's on the Somerset Levels, quite close to
the Isle of Avalon Glastonbury.

As we traversed the lengthy path which runs - pretty much in a straight line - for 2.7 km through the wetland, we encountered a small ecology of senior citizens, often festooned with long-lens cameras. Cyclists were also common, along with Red Admiral butterflies .. and the usual profusion of regular flies with their unhealthy regard for human hair.
Ham Wall, with its dense reed-beds, is a local centre for
starling murmurations but that's all finished now for the year.
