OULTON BROAD

Today's weather: A miserably dull and cold day .

 

 

Everitts Park entrance

The entrance to Everitt's Park, just after I took this photograph I saw a grey Squirrel run up a tree but I wasn't quick enough to photograph it.

 

Lowestoft Museum

Everitt's park was once a private estate with this being the main house, it now houses the Lowestoft Museum.

 

Maltings reflections

The ice on the Broad makes for great reflections as this photo of the Maltings show.

 

ice on Oulton Broad

Someone's been trying to find out how thick the ice is by throwing allsorts of rubbish onto it, judging by the large plank of wood it's quite thick but not thick enough to walk on.

 

Birds on Oulton Broad

Even the birds seem to be grounded today…

 

Swans feeding

Until there's a chance of some food.

 

Ducks walking on the ice

The poor Ducks find it a struggle to walk on the slippery ice.

 

Feeding the Ducks

But there's usually someone around to feed them.
