Wednesday, February 17
We're green again. The snow disappeared within 24 hours. We had to go to the Eye Clinic at Cromer Hospital yesterday morning (Lucentis injection number 28 in left eye). The large mounds of dirty snow, and the drifts remaining roadside and in the fields, was evidence of why the road was almost impassible last week.
Whilst the local anaesthetic lasted, we drove home via Sheringham and Salthouse, adding a Red-throated Diver to the month list. A small flock of Great Ringed Plover and another of Dunlin, raised the spirits.
The rational me doesn't want lockdown to finish until Covid is under reasonable control. I'll stand whatever it takes. Another part wants the freedom to go birding, to moth and meet friends at Natural Surroundings and to actually converse in person with others. The rational wins every time.
We face due south, sunrise and sunset is not viewable from our home. There have been some stunning photographs posted online. My only contribution is a back-lit stormy cloud with a silver lining. Imagery?
