The Spring Tides have been good this year assuming, like me, you like to see the water sweep in to Ham Lands. Normally I focus on the area in front of Ham House because there you can watch the water race across the ground to quickly swallow more of the grasslands. This time I have looked the other way across the Horse Field, not that it looks much like a field when full of water.
Great photo! That's why this spot is so good for Himalayan balsam and orange balsam and why we return each year to prevent it from getting out of control. Also a prime environment for the black poplars planted last year.
ReplyDeleteThe Environment Trust will be back at the Horse Field by Ham House on Saturday May 25th 2013 at 10am.
