Peacock azure

Funny old day, and surprisingly mild. If the river hadn't come up again I might have given it a go.. drove round a bit, just checking though. That is a statue squatting by the tree. I think....

And this is a blurry peacock lighting up the stygian gloom

Did venture  down to the canal, more in hope of a sunset shot but packed a zander set up to match the very restrictive piking rules. 

Used some of the tiny Adriatic sardines LIDL did a while ago, should really have sunk and drawn them, I'll know better next time. Enjoyed a watching a fellow angler catch his first fly caught pike. Think he

was late home for his tea as he shot off at a rate of knots.
