Health check for the "Old Girl" this morning...that's the Car! It was no hardship pulling myself away from the coast and a stiff Easterly! A nervous hour resulted in a clean bill of health and a new MOT Certificate. As I was in Hull...yep...onward to Duff. Still glowing from the positive result, I was soon brought down to Earth when a passing Lorry leaving a building site, deposited a stone on my Windscreen, cracking it. Triumph and Disaster and all that. That's life!
Time to clear the head. The perfect tonic was the sight of c10 Swifts (87) hawking insects over the scrape in front of the Geoff Smith Hide. Wonderful! Nothing else of note in 30 minutes so I had a walk down to Garganey Hide...no Garganey again but a singing Garden Warbler (88) was a BIG surprise.
A pleasant couple of hours was spent. Highlights being...
