Monday December 5th
A seven-mile walk round Pitsford Water. With Norma and Maureen.
Chosen in order to avoid muddy fields and ten-ton boots. As it happened it was quite chilly, but fine once we were moving. Some brightness, a little drizzle, but not enough to wet us.
Lots of lapwings on the causeway bank. We parked at the causeway car park, and walked clockwise round the reservoir.
Still plenty of autumn colours hanging on, and lots of geese and water birds. We saw one splendid flight of geese.

Stopped at the Willow Tree cafe for coffee and teacakes on the way round.
