Ravenous, muscular beast -
Flowing full and fast

All quiet down the river this afternoon
3 cormorant
11 geese
1 swan
possible little egret
+ mallard ducks
1 boat making its way upstream

Overcast with a cool breeze
The tree man has strimmed the summer growth from around the saplings in the tree enclosures and they are looking neat. Next job: plant out the willows I've grown from cuttings to fill in some of the gaps

An image of a beautifully preserved #medieval wicker #fishweirs/trap from #Hemington, #England. The area around Hemington is known to have a large number of early fish weirs. Weirs dating to the mid-4th millennium BC have been claimed to exist from the #RiverTrent.
