They don’t just stay on the coast … they can be found on fields all over Norfolk and Suffolk, probing in the soil with their beaks for worms and other invertebrates. 😊
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Lovely photo @Fran IOM That's my all time favourite bird,I loved the sound of them flying up and down Kinlochleven,when I lived in Scotland. They are here in Wales too,we see them along the Pembrokeshire coast.
The whole truth is an instrument that can only be played by an expert.
I recently rescued one from the tide line after it had been attacked by someone's dog. It's plumage had become saturated in the surf and it couldn't fly. Nothing broken but I had to find it somewhere it could lie up for a while and dry out without getting attacked again.
Clay soil - Cheshire/Derbyshire border. I play with plants and soil and sometimes it's successful
I love to walk along the River Tees and often see - and hear them - while enjoying my walks. Their peep peep call is very distinctive, usually as they fly away after you have disturbed them lol.
