A Soaking at North Cave Wetlands

 It had been good weather all week but the forecast for today was heavy rain. Undeterred, and knowing the vagaries of the weather forcast, Brian and I decided to go anyway. Today however the weather did what it said on the tin. A short way into our circuit there was a rumble of thunder and the rain arrived. We tried to dodge from hide to hide but we both finshed up soaked to the skin. The burger and hot chocolate from the Little Butty Bus was most welcome. Despite the weather we finished up with 42 species the hights being common tern, reed warbler, sand martin, swallow and garden warbler.
