Having spent the morning shopping and making soup, I awarded myself a walk along the Jubilee River this afternoon.
This is one of two redshanks present, which were sharing one of the few islands left above water with about ten snipe, some gulls and a moorhen.
I didn't think it had rained so much recently, then recalled that Oxfordshire had snow at the weekend. So the floodwater is probably melted snow that's run off into the Thames. And it's still horribly cold!
