Shocking images- do watch. Thorpeness- "10m of land taken by the sea in just a fortnight..The sheer speed of the erosion has shocked everyone" Why no mention of the 🐘 in the room- it's not looking good for yet to be built Sizewell C, just a short distance away!

Met up with long-standing friends who are visiting Suffolk this morning for a catch up. Birding was varied and productive. Super close Manx Shearwater and confiding Firecrest at Thorpeness were the highlights, the latter my first of the autumn, as was a Rock Pipit at Slaughden.

Aerial image of the Suffolk coast from Thorpeness in the foreground, then Aldeburgh & the River Alde winding past Orford Ness in the distance. The cranes of Felixstowe Docks can be seen near the horizon #Suffolk #coast #aerial #image #RiverAlde

Thorpeness, just south of Sizewell C which is relying on sand banks to keep the site safe till the late 2100s!
Storm Babet "came with full force &...that weakened the whole system along because it is sandy & there’s no way of making sand stay still, Sand erodes"

Have a safe trip, Aldeburgh (incl Thorpeness), Framlingham & Southwold really lovely towns near to where you are, give Leiston a wide berth & Saxmundham not worth bothering with either apart from a good Tesco/Waitrose for supplies.
Currently testing sugar cubes...

Hi, where is that in Aldeburgh? Is it come down the slope into Aldeburgh turn right, go along the High Street right to the far end where the boats are, and it’s over on the right? You’re now going to say NO it’s towards Thorpeness.. 😁👋

Pleasant day of #SuffolkBirding with a few decent scarce migrants. Confiding Hawfinch at Minsmere could be found by listening for haw seeds crunching! Also elusive Temmincks, Whimbrel, smart Redstart, Wheatear, Reed Wblr, Casp and YL Gulls here. Earlier, nice Ring Ouzel at Thorpeness but little else

One grieves for you. It would be unkind to be smug, but I'm in Thorpeness at the moment, the heart of the Suffolk foodie revolution.

The story behind Thorpeness is interesting, worth a Google.

Seen by David Fairhurst and count of 34 is minimum - likely over 40 seen as there was a massive turn over of gulls during both Saturday and Sunday. When it is windy the gulls come into the wetlands at Minsmere, Thorpeness Meare and Hollesley.

The house *is* sometimes in the clouds at Thorpeness. Well, the early morning mist at least.

A trip up the Suffolk coast with Dave today resulted in the Shore Lark at Kessingland, a showy Firecrest at Wrentham and the Osprey and pair of Wood Duck, presumed escapees, at Thorpeness Mere. #suffolkbirds
