Pleased to see the terns but highlight had to be the Grey Squirrel snacking on the nuts as we were about to leave, got some stunning pics and a not too good video, my fault for using too much zoom :D

Went down Holme Bridleway but very little about at quart to nine, they were most likely tucked up in bed :wink:

We both thoroughly enjoyed trip out!

Regards

John and DJ
