Lakenheath Fen RSPB, Suffolk

A quick visit to Lakenheath Fen. It is a large reserve to walk around and the hides were not open when we visited so we stayed in the area around the visitor centre. Always a good place to spot Marsh Harriers, sometimes the Common Cranes and Bitterns and in the summer Hobbies and Dragonflies. A walk along the bank gives good views over the Little Ouse washes.

This Pheasant liked to continually demonstrate that this bit of the reserve was his.
