TF5626 : Inquisitive cattle on the salt marsh of The Wash
taken 12 years ago, near to Ongar Hill, Norfolk, England
Inquisitive cattle on the salt marsh of The Wash
The cattle had been grazing on the sea bank and reluctantly moved onto the waterlogged salt marsh as I got closer to them. This area of the marsh north of Admiral's Farm, Ongar Hill has been grazed by cattle for many years. Cattle have a tendency to stop grazing and stare at humans in close proximity which can be a little daunting when you are alone and totally outnumbered.
But I wasn't alone - after I had taken this photo and gone back along the bank towards Ongar Hill I saw 2 figures, presumably wildfowlers, struggling over the salt marsh back to the coast (They are the 2 black dots on the horizon right of centre)
