Hurray!!!

Went back to the river with camera and tripod and the birds were still there! Yes! The light was too harsh and so the seagulls didn’t come out all right, but ducks and cormorants did! The herons, both white and grey, were too far away, unfortunately.
I do apologise for the poor maintenance the council does. The river is full of branches and tree trunks, like the one in the picture. I guess they are waiting for them to be carried downstream and, eventually to the sea.
