Let it rain !

I think it last rained in this part of the UK nearly three weeks ago and it is desperately needed. So I was very happy to get soaked by a rain/hailstorm on the bike ride home this evening. Afterwards it smelled fresh and the birds were singing happily again. In fact, it was the best birthday present I had, thanks to Mother Nature.

This shot was taken on Datchet Green during a brief respite from the worst of the shower.
