Unlike yesterday they were not superb views they were distant! I arrived at 0810 and set up camp on the bench seat at the Grebe Lake and stayed till 1745 which is a very long time. Thankfully I was never short of company and those who came along included Steve R, Alan & Carol Hudson, June & Keith Scarrott, Dave Newby, Edmund Hawkes and quite a lot more who I didn't get their names. We chatted about this and that hoping the pair would show but alas they only appeared for no more than a minute at the far northern end and after spending almost ten hours on Otter Watch I and most of those mentioned above retired and went home. Thankfully I did get to see the pair!
After returning home and throughout the evening I felt and still do feel totally shattered. And other than getting up to stretch my legs and relieve myself I never moved. Was it worth it, at this time I have to say no, but if I'd had the type of views that Roger and Steve had the days before I would think differently.
Good luck to those visiting over the weekend, I'm taking a well earnt rest!
Kind regards
John
