Ten or a dozen rooks on a tree by the Bridgnorth Road at Compton, seemingly keeping an eye on the comings and goings at the garage opposite. When I took out the camera, they all took off. Flew around fpr perhaps half a minute while they checked what I was doing, then landed back in their tree.
The first lesser celandines I’ve spotted flowering this year. Right on the edge of the canal about a hundred yards from the water bridge.
Goosander drake, the same bird featured in yesterday’s post, and still on Bridgnorth’s Bylet gravel beach. Now taking a long rest. First pictures taken from the bridge; final picture taken after I walked up to High Town, looking down to the river from Castle Walk.
The whispy seeds of an old man’s beard – these were by the side of the Railway Walk at Newbridge.
Goosander drake on the gravel beach on the upstream tip of the Bylet at Bridgnorth, busy preening its breast feathers.
