First post....

The river Ock is a small tributary of the River Thames. Rising in the North Wessex Downs (famous for the Uffington White Horse) it flows through South Oxfordshire, eventually joining the Thames in Abingdon.

It even has it's own Wikipedia entry http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/River_Ock

In this blog, I hope to write about and photograph the wildlife and changes to the Ock and surrounding area, which I have enjoyed for the past few years.
