Green and country in the city 7 January

  • Monday I heard a great tit calling from a tree in the road in front of the house
  • Tuesday beautiful pink sky - and heavy rain later. So it was an accurate shepherds' warning.
  • Wednesday there were a lot of Christmas trees discarded on the pavements. Very windy too (storm Eleanor)
  • Rain Thursday morning made it so dark the street lamps were on when I left the house to catch the bus.
  • To Walthamstow Wetlands for this first time since they opened on Saturday (see separate blog post).
  • On the fence of the car park at the end of Coppermill Lane was a banner advertising guided walks in the Lea Valley - and the picture was of my neighbours, Piers and Charmaine!
  • Weather forecast for wind today (Sunday). Luckily incorrect as I was in an open canoe paddling so someone could make recordings of the sound of the paddling. Wind spoils the recording and I can't control an open canoe in wind!
