Who would have thought that there was anymore rain left to fall on England this Spring and Summer? But the early spots this morning have turned into a steady heavy downpour yet again and you can almost feel the waters rising once more.
Apart from lots of birds having baths and a couple of Starling-murdering Magpies it has been a fairly uneventful day with not even a nice boat to talk about!
On the plus side the Marsh Warbler is still in fine form but on the downside the Wildlife Pond was again visited yesterday evening, plants trampled and the waters have suddenly gone down another six inches to a point where its existance is no longer tenable. I shall start removing the pond weed, lillies and associated wildlife tomorrow with a view to creating a bog garden in its place.
