Fen: Misty Morning

Observed crossing the fen this morning:

- a grey heron in flight languorously making its way down the water course

- green wood pecker also making its way down the fen, first noticed as a flashing dash of red

- the cows companionably lying round the base of a poplar tree chewing the cud


- the soft look of the fen created by a haze of new grass heads and tall buttercups, accentuated by the misty start to the day
