Marazion Marsh

It was a cold frosty morning around Marazion today but the lack of wind made it pleasant to be out and about and the clouded sunrise made a fine spectacle backing up the coastline at St Micheal's Mount

                                             

A lone doe Roe Deer browsed the hedgerow in the fields behind Longrock pool and a rabbit on the warren didn't like getting cold paws on the frosted grass and so it resulted to warming them up on its cheeks.

I stopped  for a while and watched some of the larger birds that arrived early at the marsh.  First in were several pairs of Noisy Canada Geese that all made a nice fly-by only to turn to make graceful landings on the waters at the front of the warren.

I then watched the skill and agility with which a Grey Heron approached and landed on what looked like an impossible Willow tree branches for such a large bird to land on but it sat there rock solid posing as still as a statue,
