after a hectic Christmas and New Year ...
Friday 10th saw a pair of swan visiting and setting on the lawn ...
but the woodpecker is a regular visitor to the bird feeders ...
while the Mallards take advantage of the sunshine and the droppings from the feeders
Monday 13th at 6:30 through the galley window ...
and the Mallards are pairing up ... good friends!
Wednesday 15th the river Thames is flooding once more ...
Sunrise just before 8 on Thursday with the moon still in the sky.
Yesterday the river has risen even higher; it's probably up about 3' now ...
and the bottom step off the end of the pontoon is well under water and all red boards (no cruising) are up all along the non-tidal Thames once again.
The forecast for the next week or so is for very little, if any rain, so hopefully the river will subside to normal levels ... we shall see!
You are not going to be short of water this year, I think. You've been rising high all winter so far, haven't you? Lovely photos as always, Carol!
