Re: Today in pictures
Today in Pictures, Hyndburn Brook re-visited.
1. After the floods of a few weeks ago Hyndburn Brook has eroded large areas of its banks and deposited them else-ware, these wood posts were hidden until the water washed the bank away.
2. Possibly a Cinnamon Sedge.
3. Red Bistort, flowering away at the moment.
4. The water is that clean that they are catching Brown Trout around here, I saw one landed as I walked past.
5. Further round the Brook more wooden posts have been revealed.
6. Large deposits of gravel, washed out of the bankings, I think the area was once used as a tip or landfill, as large amounts of red brick are seen, often tumbled smooth, but some say Accrington Nori on them.
7. Two wickthings for the price of one, a shield bug and a mayfly.
8. This is the paint-ball area, from the "Dunk"
9. He might look a bit sheepish, but he is mucky again.
10. Almost home, Riley's Swing Bridge.
With that a three hour walk came to a close.
