    2 night trip

    Some basic footage from a great 2 night trip around my locale..
    Distance hiked around 20 miles over 3 days and temps around 2c at night.
    A very chilled out relaxing trip.
    Some creatures heard on the video: green woodpecker, swan, Chinese water deer, buzzard, mallard duck, teal, moorhen, coot, blackbird, wood pigeon....

    Great to see that your garden testing has paid dividends and you can get out and utilize your kit to enjoy the natural world.

    Very peaceful video.

    I had to look up Chinese Water Deer. Holy moly!

    Impressive tusks indeed!
    The bucks are particularly aggressive towards each other, I’ve had them battling in front of me completely oblivious to my presence.
    They’re also aggressive towards the slightly smaller muntjacs, often pushing the muntjacs out and taking over territory, both being introduced species, it’s a strange irony that they’d compete for territory!
    Thanks for watching, I’m no self promoter or great editor, just capturing the things that make me want to go walking/camping.

    Great looking trip and some nice spots. As a Norfolk man living far abroad I really enjoyed this as a vicarious trip home.(although perhaps left me a little homesick). Thanks Yeti!

    Glad to bring you some memories...can’t see me wanting to leave the broads...although some foreign warmth would be a tonic right now!!
    What took you to Indonesia?

    The Broads are a hard place to leave! Fantastic part of the country. Hopefully I'll make it back permanently at some point (if I can convince my wife). I came out to Indonesia looking for work after the financial crisis and found some good opportunities here. It's a great place to be and some of the camping can be incredible but an insect net is essential. Hoping to get my hammock out to some great spots this year if covid allows.

    I think I saw something like that on The Flintstones one time!

    Be cool to see some of your area and wildlife...guessing there’s some nasty critters around!
    Norfolk will always be here for you should you return, look me up for a camp if you do.
