Lockdown Walk 8

College Reservoir 

Today we went for a walk around College Reservoir for a change of scenery to the woods. Lots of swans were swimming around with a few looking like they will be breeding soon, the great crested grebes are starting the water ballet that they do to court. The air around us was filled with the smell of coconut and the sounds of all the birds around us. With the most notable being the chiffchaffs, the wrens and the great tits. The lake is the clearest we have ever seen making it easy to see lots of little fish swimming around, when we were heading back we spotted a much larger fish which we believe to be a pike. It is a much needed break being outside having not the left the house the past few days. As always it was lovely to feel the sun radiating down onto our faces.
