A Wildlife Walk - British Wildlife in the River Waveney valley

  • Wildlife along UK rivers can be amazingly rich and diverse, and that is definitely true for the River Waveney on the Norfolk and Suffolk border in East Anglia. In this video I follow a section of the Angles Way long distance path from the town of Beccles to the village of Geldeston, taking a look at the landscape and discovering some of the wildlife that lives in the areas around the river and both above and beneath the waters surface.
    Expect common species such as Pied wagtails and Buzzards, but also rare animals such as a Cuckoo being fed and an aquatic creature I have never seen before.
    This video was produced to promote the area and the walking routes through Norfolk and Suffolk's wetlands on behalf of the Water, Mills and Marshes project. If you would like to find out more about the work they are doing to enhance and promote the broads landscape, here is their website: watermillsandmarshes.org.uk/

    Brilliant Liam, really great. The heron pellet was a good spot, and you did well to film the Treecreeper. I did have a chuckle at you climbing over the style when there was no gate. I almost felt you'd put that in especially for my amusement. 😆 All in all a really well put together piece, especially with the inclusion of the summer clips. 👍👍👍

      Cheers Graham. I've got lucky a few times with treecreepers, perhaps theirs a "things to know about treecreepers" video in the pipeline.
      I'm glad you noticed the style without need (confession time, I thought they were called Stys until now, never seen it written down before).
      Thanks as always mate.

    Wonderful walk Liam.
    Just great to see all that wildlife.
    Your films are so good mate, loved the way you linked the filming and wildlife - some special sightings there.
    I’ve always loved Treecreepers - this week we’ve seen them plus Marsh Harriers - so it’s been a real highlight of a week!!
    Keep doing what you do, you’re so good at this 👍👍👍👍

    Thank Liam for this great video. I must visit Beccles this summer and look out for all this wildlife. I really enjoy your channel as the videos about each specific species helps me to find wildlife in my local area and I love the videos like this one as I learn about the wildlife in other parts of the uk where I can visit. Keep up the great work!

    Just recently come across your videos Liam great stuff, I live in West Norfolk and were truly blessed in East anglia with wildlife. The amount of buzzards and red kites I see daily is crazy great to see them doing so well and there has been serious talk of reintroducing the white tailed Eagle from Kings lynn to the north Norfolk coast. Keep up the good work mate 👍

    What a fabulous area you live in. I was sorry when this video came to an end - definitely your best yet. I was engrossed from start to finish. To see that young cuckoo being fed must have been amazing. Do you happen to know how far that walk was, out of interest, or how long it took you to do? Would love to see more videos like this - it definitely has the feel good factor!

    Hi Liam, I spotted a large beaver like animal in 2010 going towards a river in North Wales, I was quite sure it wasn’t a beaver but everyone convinced me otherwise, I’m now pretty sure it was this Coypu.

    • @AShotOfWildlife
      @AShotOfWildlife  Год назад +1

      Hello. Sorry for the delay, I seem to have missed a whole bunch of comments (I don't think youtube likes it when I use studio on my phone and a laptop simultaneously).
      Anyway, yes, it could have been a coypu. There have been a handful of reports of them being seen in Wales but hopefully they are one offs and not breeding there.

    Lovely wildlife walk! I recently did one in Hampshire that I'm currently editing to upload to my channel, and like in yours the weather took a turn for the worse when I was out. I particularly liked your high tech waterproof camera case, it looks strangely familiar to the one I use! It's fascinating how many different bird species you were able to capture during your walk. Plus your sighting of the otter bubbles was exciting, you got closer than I've ever been to spotting a wild otter!
