Monday 15th June - walks *** – Landguard Nature Reserve circuit – sunny
start then clouding over with a cool breeze!
Mag went for her early morning prom walk and once again I slept right
through it but when she returned I decided to have a drive round at 6.30 to
take a few weather pics as it was nice and sunny with a light breeze. I
ended up at the cliff top car as there are loads of poppies at the moment
and had a walk out onto the shingle bar before returning home to sort out
the photos. After breakfast I started my exercises in the back garden but
it had now clouded over and when we got a few spots of rain I came indoors,
not overly warm either:( Mag packed todays picnic, yummy egg sandwiches and
as we had to do a big Lidl shop to drove down to have a walk through
Landguard Nature Reserve, it was a tad on the gloomy side and with a breeze
from the east I could have done with my fleece on! Wildlife was a little
thin on the ground just the odd rabbit and a few linnets and pipits. We
reached the Orwell and walked out onto the small wooden pier to watch a
container ship being helped onto its berth by three tugs and the yellow
Harwich foot came ashore. We continued along the Orwell and found a spot
sheltered from the breeze behind the sea wall for lunch and watch a small
boat working on the channel bouys and there was several yachts out. We then
walked back across the reserve away from the beach where it was a little
warmer, shop and home for a cuppa and cake:) The wind picked up late
afternoon enough to foil but it was way too late for me to be bothered,
fingers crossed we get some wind on Wednesday!
