I've always been curious about The Wash, that distinctly shaped chunk out of England's East Coast backside. So on my way back from Yorkshire, I couldn't resist the temptation to go and take a look.
Well of course there isn't all that much to see. It's all incredibly flat, and a lot of it is marsh for a lot of the time anyway.
I did see the offshore wind farms though. They were quite interesting.
And at Gibraltar Point nature reserve, there were nature trails, and bird hides, where you could observe the water birds from up close. I had to settle for a couple of swans, which did seem more relaxed than usual. The visitor centre has a list of the day's sightings. The tally was 15 species.
