Canal Walk

Early morning walk to the canal via the local park which has a bench refurbished by some keen DIY enthusiasts!   Probably the same duo who did the rustic plaque in honour of their sadly demised chum Ron.  One has to admire their community spirit !   Saw a heron wading through the reeds - he took flight as we crept up to take a rather poor photo.  This camera is handy for snaps but not ideal for anything more demanding.  It is light and does fit into my pocket so that was my main reason for buying it.  The thistles are looking particularly fetching at the moment, as are all the wild flowers nearby.  Home via the Co-op. Hazel popped in for some heavy stuff  - soya milk, tins of tuna, etc.
