Wet and Windy. Town of Arundel and Warnham LNR

I headed off in the murk this morning for some cheese shopping in Pallants of Arundel.. I was a bit early so had a stroll around

The Mute Swan family of 7 Cygnets were out in the fields on the opposite side from the stream..

This is looking down the path.. the stream has flooded with all the rain..

A glimpse of Arundel Castle through the trees

and from the bridge looking along the River Arun

and from there into my local town for a quick bit of shopping before heading off to Warnham LNR for a short visit..

the light was dreadful!!
Looking out across the pond....

Around by the feeders .. lots of fungi

Just one adult and one juvenile Great Crested Grebe still... I assume the other Adult and Juvenile have now left.. I was advised the the juveniles are now flying..

One Grey Heron and loads of Mallards

and about 25 Teal arrive whilst I was watching.. also saw 1 Pochard. (no pics)

 Nice to get some fresh air.. albeit not the best of days weatherwise.
