Spring canoeing
Beautiful morning yesterday with SW breeze and sunshine. Paddled with Mike Sherwen from Billingford to Syleham. It was a good day, full of herons, buzzards and another day-flying barn owl. Fantastic.

On the marshes
Nice circular walk across the Haddiscoe Marshes a couple of days ago:
Having left the map at home I took a turn off on to the marsh one track too early so ended up on the wrong side of the dyke. Which meant a cautious step across a ligger:
And then a rather more cautious bum shuffle, feet first, over this ropey, tilted, slippery and very creaky plank into a bramble thicket to get back to the track proper!
The walk back, correctly located on a footpath, was much easier!
At the edge of the marsh was a lovely patch of feral woodland:
Even if it was rather damp under foot:

Canoe bathtime
Getting ready for some reinforcement panels inside and a coat of varnish all over. Spring is on the way!
