Minsmere

Friday November 20
Raining when we left, rained at lunch time, rained on the way home. We kept dry as we spent most of the time having a drink with Jen and Marj in the cafe on arrival and then a long lunch still talking. We haven't seen them since June.
Pam and I stopped in the overflow carpark, overlooking Island Mere, on the way in and saw a great White Egret. Coal Tits and the usual finches and tits on the feeders, hundreds of Wigeon and Teal and 2 Blackwits from West Hide, nothing from South Hide. Very disappointing.
We showed Marj and Jen the way to the overflow on the way out and the Gt White turned up trumps for them.
