High tide tomorrow-even higher on Wednesday at 10.4-and the timing is good (around mid day). I think the wind is favourable..........should be good for SEO & Harriers.............but I have been know to be wrong;)

Sorry-only got your post this morning.
Unfortunately the answer is yes. High tide is approx' 11.45 so (to my knowledge) it will be all over by, say, 12.30.
A couple of years ago it was a real success as the water broke right up to the car park and people were seeing birds & creatures they had never seen before........and guess what......we got there 1 hour late and missed the lot:C

Quite good today. Very cold of course and the wind was straight in our face-not a strong wind but cooooooold.
Lots of Harriers with 1 pair in particular showing very clearly and reasonably close. Also at least 3 S.E.O.
Tomorrow the tide is slightly higher @ 10.1 mtr (not 10.4 as I was led to believe).

Just to finish the day we went to Moore-and I was next to a bloke with 2 cameras (at least one of which was 1D-couldn't see the other) plus a 500mm f4 AND AN 800MM 5.6.......How unfair is that:-C
