Wednesday 30th March – walk **** – Circuit of Landguard Nature reserve
– cloudy.
The cloudy weather continues with only very brief glimpses of sun, the day
started badly when my 66-day run in ‘Wordle’ came to an end but
that’s life! Was not sure we would do anything today as it looked cold
out just like yesterday so while I did my exercises Mag watched the
Ukraine, so tragic what is happening there the world has gone completely
mad:( Then it looked to be brightening up and with light winds we were
tempted out, after making a yummy chicken sandwich we decided to drive to
The Manor car park and despite my dodgy heel which makes walking
uncomfortable that we would do a circuit of Landguard Nature reserve hoping
to see some Linnets, so I took my big lens. Leaving the van at 12.45
spotting a magpie in the caravan park and over to the brambles near the
docks but sadly no Linnets today just a singing Dunnock. We made a detour
to the view point but not much boat action today, the tailor ferry had just
come in and the rock dredger was out but not much else as we headed for our
spot on the old jetty. We shared our sandwich with a pair of Herring Gulls
with one feeding the other with was lovely to see:) Then back across the
reserve with flocks of small birds and several rabbits, then a quick stop
at Lidl before home for a cuppa with delicious homemade sponge:)
There is a couple of really windy days coming but very cold with talk of
sleet or even snow as the wind is from the north! So with 45 mph winds
tomorrow will give tomorrow a miss but am keeping my eye on Friday for
maybe a trip to Bradfield, will have to wait and see. Was pleased to get a
small pic again in the local paper!
