River in flood

Brighter with a few rain showers, 12°, light SSW.

Down on the Marsh this morning………………….fairly quiet with 2 singing Chiffchaff and 3 singing Reed Bunting present but little else.

The river has overflowed its banks in a few places and the path is only navigable with wellies at the moment but slippery in places.

A recent situation of a dog chasing and cornering a deer on the Marsh and the timely intervention of a BBOWT volunteer prevented a bad outcome and another example of a couple letting their dog chase the cattle and had to be reminded to put the dog on a lead to keep control!

Please folks…………keep your dogs under control………………there are those who can and do.
