Horning again
We moored up opposite Horning*, that is, on the other side of the river. Try as we might we could not find a means to get to the other side and revisit the Bure River Cottage restaurant. There is a ferry but it does not run after 5pm - very frustrating - next time we vowed we would be towing a little rowing boat, even though that makes mooring even more stressful. So we had to settle for a walk through the nature reserve and "home cooking".
* note that the view of nature above is not our mooring at Horning, but taken earlier while on the move.
A Duck a Day: The Heron
Another amazing bird we take for granted. They are still as statues when at rest, and it seems incredible but you can miss spotting them even in the most obvious places.
They are so BIG - and so amusing in flight, with their untidy wing action and impossibly long legs trailing behind.
Time to dry out.
