More mud than flood.....
......in the north-eastern corner of Dorney Common now; but just right for a bright-eyed snipe to settle down and have a rest in the sun. As I walked away it tucked its bill back under its feathers to resume its nap.
After watching the closing ceremony of the Games on Sunday night, I went out into the garden to see if I could spot any meteors. A slow rustling noise in the corner resolved in the torch beam into this toad. (Also revealed was the cobwebby state of our back gate!)
And I didn't see any Perseids because by the time I'd taken the photo the sky had clouded over.
