Afternoon walk to the river and back, Worcester: Sunday, 25th October, 2020.

 

Unusual for the swans to be at the jetty in the afternoon.

Feed me. I was here first.

Why didn't we bring more food?

They're really hungry.

All food pellets scoffed.

Skyscape I.

Skyscape II.

Some people don't smile if it's raining.

Skyscape III.

How many rings?

150 at least.

Yoda.

Walk to the river and back, and a walk into town and back, Worcester: Friday, 23rd October, 2020.

Morning skyscape.

Tree felling continues along Pitchcroft.

Lexie.

'Our' swans on the move.

They're hungry.

Hello.

Wot's she seen?

Answer: two swans about 400 metres away.

She must have brilliant eye sight.

And off they go.

Those cygnets are going to get cut off unless.......

........they are old enough to (just about) fly.

'Our' cygnets can't fly yet.

Queen of all she surveys.

Preening.

It's all in the detail.

Autumnals.

Pixie (late morning).

Pixie (early afternoon).

Funghi invading the racecourse.

Autumnal steps at The Hive.

Cards posted.

In the bank.

Back at The Hive.

Time to take our masks off.

Good.

Slow walk home along Pitchcroft.

Afternoon skyscape.

Cat on a hedge?!

A walk to the river, along it, and back, Worcester: Thursday, 22nd October, 2020.

 

Rosie.

See her most days, never taken a photo before.

A disposable tree that will soon be 

replaced by a foot/cycle bridge.

The swans are downstream and being fed.

Cormorant taking off.

'Our' swan family.

Are they hungry?

No, not particularly.

Cormorant.

In flight.

Imagine how this view upstream would be vastly 

improved by constructing a new foot/cycle bridge

across the river.

Less trees, less wildlife, more iron and concrete. Lovely.

Pitchcroft walk.

Heron.

Heron watcher.

Heron on the move.........

..........and flying off upstream.

Worcester skyscape.

Tree felling along Pitchcroft.

Roots rot and the trees become unstable.

Autumnals.

Sabrina half-bridge.

Footpath is a bit muddy.

Homeward bound.

Pixie striding purposefully.

Yeh, right there.
