Back in June, the trees were green, the grass in the meadows was long and there were a multitude of pyramidal orchids and lots of butterflies to lift the spirits:





In the river, it was possible to spot the occassional water vole:


Now the seasons have changed, the trees are loosing their leaves, the grass has been cut and the orchids have been replaced by fungal fruiting bodies.



And there are very few signs of water vole activity.


Yet somethings don't seem to change, the Prime Minister has announced that there will be another national lockdown from the 5th November to 2nd December.

  1. Hi Richard, I hope you are still keeping a watch on the Ock. I occasionally wonder if you're okay, as I used to enjoy reading your blog. You'll remember I filmed "your" otters further down the Ock, towards Charney Bassett. Hope you are keeping your head above water. Mike.
