I followed the path from behind the Beach Huts along by the water\u00a0to Arlesford Creek. It was cold but a beautiful day and I was so glad I had taken my camera with me. The light was simply perfect and\u00a0as I wandered about choosing different clouds to shoot\u00a0I\u00a0suddenly spotted a dark swarm\u00a0on the horizon and realise that a large flock of Geese\u00a0are on the move and heading my way&#8230;..<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lindsaywakelin.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/MG_9097.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-914\" title=\"_MG_9097\" src=\"https:\/\/lindsaywakelin.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/MG_9097.jpg\" alt=\"_MG_9097\" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lindsaywakelin.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/MG_9097.jpg 400w, https:\/\/lindsaywakelin.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/MG_9097-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>It is at this point I am regretting only bringing one lens with me! As they swoop and curve over, the noise of them chattering and flapping fills the air around me. On the ground their shadows seem to move in slow motion and remind me of a clip I once saw in a Pink Floyd video of dark aircraft shapes moving as one.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lindsaywakelin.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/MG_91091.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-915\" title=\"_MG_9109\" src=\"https:\/\/lindsaywakelin.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/MG_91091.jpg\" alt=\"_MG_9109\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lindsaywakelin.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/MG_91091.jpg 500w, https:\/\/lindsaywakelin.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/MG_91091-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I stand in wonder\u00a0at the ever changing scenery in front of me..<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lindsaywakelin.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/MG_91241.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-916\" title=\"_MG_9124\" src=\"https:\/\/lindsaywakelin.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/MG_91241.jpg\" alt=\"_MG_9124\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lindsaywakelin.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/MG_91241.jpg 500w, https:\/\/lindsaywakelin.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/MG_91241-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>After putting on a very impressive air display they finally settle down in a field near by.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lindsaywakelin.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/MG_91321.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-917\" title=\"_MG_9132\" src=\"https:\/\/lindsaywakelin.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/MG_91321.jpg\" alt=\"_MG_9132\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lindsaywakelin.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/MG_91321.jpg 500w, https:\/\/lindsaywakelin.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/MG_91321-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Then I approach the creek which is still and silent and illuminated like a freshly painted picture.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lindsaywakelin.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/MG_9185.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-918\" title=\"_MG_9185\" src=\"https:\/\/lindsaywakelin.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/MG_9185.jpg\" alt=\"_MG_9185\" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lindsaywakelin.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/MG_9185.jpg 400w, https:\/\/lindsaywakelin.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/MG_9185-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0To see the other pictures I took along my way click here <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pbase.com\/wakelin\/the_birds\">http:\/\/www.pbase.com\/wakelin\/the_birds<\/a>\u00a0to go to my Gallery.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for stopping by&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>Lindsay<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following a shoot on Saturday I decided to go for a walk in Brightlingsea.
