New visitors at Oxley, Shingle Street

 The latest at Oxley Dairy, Shingle Street

Oxley Dairy welcomed three ewes and five lambs to us from Seven Hills farm  to graze some of our smaller areas.   Seriously cute lambs still young enough to be staying close to mum and falling asleep in the sun regularly.

The kite surfers have been busy off the Shingle Street beach over the last few weeks – a sight I love to watch. Although the Oxley Dairy fields have had a few kites blowing above them recently over the school holidays.

The tern fencing will be erected on the Shingle Street beach next week to protect the nesting birds.  This is such a diverse area in terms of flora and fauna and the Shingle Street Survey is being conducted this year to let us know to what extent. See www.shinglestreetsurvey.org.uk for further information.

We provide binoculars for holiday makers at the Owls at Oxley – just as important as your walking boots!
