What a waste of a windy and mild weekend in windsurfing terms !!! wasted yesterday at our local res. never again - very gusty, short runs and cold lumpy water :( and then again today. I took my kit to Levington to check it out but with winds gusting to 35 mph and the high tide about to change and the water very lumpy decided as I was the only one there to give it a miss !!! where have all the windsurfers gone - sorry forgot most of the keen ones have just jetted off to Tenerife !!!
So Mag and I decided to make the most of the mild and mostly sunny day and have a walk even if it was a job to walk in the strong winds !!! We were only going to walk past Loompit lake to the nice sandy bay beach but ended up wal;king the last bird hide on the Suffolk Wildlife reserve at Trimley Marshes and it felt great to be alive the bracing wind and mild,sunny conditions with loads of birds to spot on the way. We were glad we made it to the last hide as we saw for the first time in Suffolk a Marsh Harrier !!!! and he gave us a great display for 20 minutes flying around the reserve upsetting all the other birds !!! There was also hundreds of all the usual ducks and waders sheltering from the high winds, so a great day was had by all :) the only shame is we haven't got a nice fast safe place to sail down this way especially in the winter when you don't want to take too many risks !!!
We even managed to stop on the way home at a friends for tea and cake - a top day :)
