Anti-clockwise walk to North Quay via Pitchcroft and back via the pharmacy, Worcester: Tuesday, 16th August, 2022.

 

Squizz.
Up a tree.
And not about to come down.
Gold Finch.
Apples.
Grey, warm and too humid upstream.
Grey, warm and too humid downstream.
Carol and Vicky.
Not chatting.
Just standing.
Feeding Mrs Gheluvelt Swan.
Busy Bee.
Narrow boat.
Mrs Gheluvelt Swan has seen two intruders upstream.
And she's off.
The intruders are determined to continue downstream.
They have a cunning plan:
flight!
Intruder No 1.
Flying and paddling downstream.
Intruder No 2.
Ditto.
Intruder No 2 lands on the wrong side of 
Mr Gheluvelt Swan.
More flight required.
On Pitchcroft.
Outward bound.
Two 'new' large cygnets.
Not sure which family they belong/belonged to.
Skyscape.
Worcester Cathedral and friends.
Almost under Sabrina Bridge.
Robin.
Was singing.
Not singing now.
Flutterbye.
On/in a flower.
Feeding two of the North Quay cygnets.
Mum and her other two cygnets have cottoned on.
Well-fed North Quay swan family.
Apples II.
About to enter the pharmacy.
Fluffy stuff.
On Pitchcroft.
Homeward bound.
One for sorrow.
Looking a bit worse for wear.
Like a lot of avian parents 
at this time of the year.
