Wildlife walk
Around 20 members joined Mike Swindells, a local ornithologist and bird ringer and Dave Thurlow of the RSPB for a wildlife walk around the course and wider estate this morning. Aldeburgh golf course is a haven for wildlife and over 30 species of bird were seen or heard during the walk. Highlights were the singing nightingales (5 or more), turtle dove and a stoat.
Many thanks to Mike and Dave, and also to Tony for providing an excellent breakfast in the clubhouse afterwards.
