Deep blue sky, punctuated by cotton ball clouds, murky green water made murkier still by the sun.
Swirling and whirling, a daring crow chases a kestrel away from its nest of fluff and broken eggshell.
Moorhen chicks (black cobweb balls on roller skates) dart to and fro;
Mother watches out for the sharp toothed Pike below.
The palms of green Gunnera hide chalky banks cut back by wintry high waters.
Yellow Flag Iris stands tall amongst reed seed heads (sausages on sticks).
A delicate pink wild rose twines around a drooping elder, stooping to kiss the water.
Fields of golden rape seed flower and remembrance poppy sweep down on either side.
