Floods again! by happypat

Floods again!

Some of you may remember this field from a photo I posted a few years ago when it was flooded before.
Always a low lying field with a brook running through it which is fed by the tidal River Wyre it is often under water but not often in the middle of summer.
The cattle don't seem to mind too much.

Three good things:
1. I have voluntarily been on a proper walk this morning. Since I broke my ankle I have been slow getting going again but this morning I was up for putting on my rucksack & going to the village veggie shop on a roundabout route of about 4 & a half miles.
2. The Hoover came back unblocked!
3. It just so happens I'm reading a rather relevant book about the sculpting of Christ the Redeemer in Rio. It's a novel but I presume the basic information of names & method is true. The Seven Sisters by Lucinda Riley. I am enjoying it.
It makes a lovely shot!

A bit like a Constable painting! Timeless - except for the electricity pylons in the distance.

Makes a lovely shot but not so good for the pasture. We have just had a week of lovely fine weather and the spell got broken yesterday with over 50mm in a few hours

A super photo. I expect the cows will be happy to have some fresh water to drink.

I thought this was like a painting too Pat! And it's lovely though very sad about all the flooding. Well done for getting such a long walk done and hope you are soon feeling like joining with your walking group again!
