The wife's recovering from a broken leg, so this was her first time out
for a walk of any length.
The weather at 9:30 was grey, drizzly and windy. We had the place to
ourselves. But because of conditions and her leg we couldn't do the whole
loop.
Which is too bad, because the birding was pretty good.
