The forecast was slightly better for inland than the coast, which is unusual, so we headed into Buttermere for a round the lake walk. It was blustery and the odd wave of drizzle swept past, but not too bad and a good dose of fresh air was had by all. Nothing much to report, but lots of mallard sleeping on the shore out of the wind, good views of goosander and then a charming dipper on the return into the village. Quite a few people out and about and it still amazes me that people attempt to walk in the Lakes, in the winter, in white plimsolls and velvety fashion boots! A few people may have got a bit muddy!
