There were two Egrets at the Cockleponds this morning. One of them a bit nervous, and flew off when I was within about 20 yards. The others seemed much less bothered and let me get about 5 yards away from it. Quite lovely. Definitely my reward for getting up for the morning walk.
Parts of the rest of the walk were a bit of a disappointment, McDonalds has gone back to slow progress – in my eyes at least. I’d hazard a guess and say that in normal construction terms, things are progressing normally, but I don’t really know.
Definitely disappointed that demolition of the bus station hasn’t started. They had many opportunities whilst the machines of demolition were on site, but they were never used, and have now gone. Of course, they could have come back today.
Not much happening on the high street itself, but that’s OK.
