A pictorial diary of my walks around the parks and wild areas of Leicestershire, and occasionally farther afield.

If you're new to my blog, you might like to have a look at the pictures in the older post as well (click on button at the bottom of the page).

I am also a writer, using the pen-name John Gwynant, and I'll occasionally announce my latest book release on the blog.

Water water - nowhere - 18 August 2011



The two pictures above tell their own story, this was the sight that greeted us at Thornton Reservoir. Both are showing areas, of the middle of the reservoir, that this time last year were covered in water.
There were few birds and of them most were Mallards and Coots, with a few tufty's and a couple of Grebe. it was a sorry sight and even the Squirrels weren't raiding the bird feeder.

Lets hope we get some serious rain soon!
