Conversation over breakfast-
Gordon – I thought we would visit a sewerage plant today to do some bird watching.
Jane – A what. You must be joking. It’ll be dangerous and smell. I’m not getting out of the car.
Gordon – I read someone’s blog who had been and they said it was good.
Jane – What year was that written in?
Gordon -2012.
Any how we went!
This is what greeted us –
So the sewerage works was actually a massive water treatment plant (Sounds a lot better).
Note the back drop again-
And does it still look warm and sunny? –
The bird life was abundant –
Cormorants roosting-
A lovely little wood sandpiper in the water –
This was the mural on the side of the information centre – (Not open) –
Flamingos upright –
Then taking part in a group drowning session –
Here’s a little black necked grebe in the centre of the photograph with lovely golden “ears” –
The other ducks are African Teal.
Here’s a Yellow billed Egret getting cross with me for taking his photograph –
So what started as a trip to a very dangerous and smelly sewerage plant turned out to be a fabulous time at a fabulous location. –
Golf tomorrow.
