A Small Piece of Wild

I think this is a rather lovely U bend in the river running down to the sea at Älandsbro. It's not easy to get down the water as there is a tangle of vegetation in the way, as well as the steep bank. The red building is an old mill.
What makes this a bit of a special place is that is a small bit of the wild, passing through an urban setting.  The bridge, just visible on the left of the image, carries the main north-south Swedish road (the E4). Behind the mill and those trees is a large school, just 50 m to my right are several low apartment blocks, and behind me is the main village. Tucked away, hidden to all but the most curious by the bushes and trees is this little piece of wilderness.
Yesterday's (back)blip is here.
