Titchfield Haven & Farlington Marsh
Sunday 23rd October I drag Mr F from his bed. I feel guilty as he is very tired but we have an RSPB walk today. The weather is going to be very good and the promise of some different waterfowl about. Anyway it's another day at the seaside. Goody.
We get to Titchfieldhaven (near Portsmouth) just after nine. The wind is very strong, not good news for birding. A pretty average day for birds nothing remarkable about. We had a good time, despite the wind. We had to park our car right on the seafront and when we came back it was caked in salt as the spray was so strong off the sea. Later on we moved to Langstone Harbour, neither of us had been there before it's a good walk and lots of wading birds about. We were however glad to see the car as we were in need of a sit down after all that walking. Farlington looks like a really good place and there is certainly a lot more to see than we managed to do in the few hours that we were there.

This looks like a really nice place to visit, for wildlife or not. And it's not too far away for the Scotts and the Floodys to visit. We were talking about a weekend in Portsmouth, probably in the new year, to visit the Dockyard, the spinnaker tower. And the shops!
