After arriving back from Hortobágy this morning, I went into a birds’ drinking place at around one in the afternoon. The birds were jittery and few for the first hour, then the light went out, and thunder started, with hailstorm the size of quail eggs. The rain was so sudden and so heavy on the dry land that the ground just could not soak it up. Flooded my hide with 20cm of water!Luckily it was over as quick as it started, and I spent a half hour emptying the hide of water and trying to get my gear salvaged. After the storm, beautiful light and a serene pond, but not a single bird. There was enough water to drink on every leave in the woods, and no need to bathe just now. So, emptyhanded from this gig.

How can I get where you have been? Why dont you write more about the guides and the hides? They are the one giving you this chance to show the wild wonders, they are the real partners! Please give them credit and help...
