After the Storm

An informal meeting was arranged by a few members of UKNP to visit Donna Nook in Lincolnshire to photograph the Grey Seal colony, which is also a R.A.F. Bombing range in the week. After making the 170 mile drive, I arrive to find we could not venture out onto the sands because the tidal surge that hit the east coast of England on Friday morning had washed up some unexploded ordnance, we would still be able to walk along the boardwalk to view them, however this is not as photogenic as being out on the sandbar.
I decided I would not stay, preferring to start heading back down the motorway and visit Blacktoft Sands RSPB reserve where they have a healthy colony of Tree Sparrows, a species which I had not photographed before.
