Linda's son Simon invited us to join him and his delightful partner Jo on a 90-minute Red Deer safari around the heathland at the back of Minsmere RSPB reserve.
We started the visit with lunch, followed by a walk out to Island Mere, where three female Goldeneye and a couple of Great Egrets were noteworthy. Back at the VC we met our driver / guide Steve, climbing into a Toyota Hilux for a bumpy ride around the heath. Despite the threat of rain and the gloom, we enjoyed terrific views of several groups of hinds with calves, as well as a magnificent 16-pointer stag. (Lots of Muntjacs too!)
