An abandoned shopping trolley found in the backstreets of Thebarton, making wavy shadow lines on the corrugated iron wall.
It was great fun to hop aboard a water taxi and cruise up and down all of the canals as the sun was going down. Others were renting gondolas and were enjoying the canals too.

One of the many river Tagus channels near Escaroupim. In this area of the river, the water is already fresh offering this hidden gem with its green banks banks full of life.
Here is a shot taken yesterday at Ladybower reservoir showing the extent of the dry weather we have had this year so far.
The piles of stones are the remains of Derwent church, demolished in the 1940's prior to the valley being allowed to flood.
The normal water line can be seen above that stone building where the bracken finishes.

An unusual sight .. a wombat at the beach. He was pretty determined, moved at quite a pace and swam across a small creek to get there.

light is not that far, not even in the middle of winter.../Ett suggestivt glimmer, ljuset inte är så långt borta, inte ens mitt i vintern.../Un resplandor sugestivo...la luz no está tan lejos, ni siquiera en pleno invierno... (DSC_6406-2)
while it was still dark we had gone to a simple bird hide to be there before the flocks of Meyer's parrots and African green pigeons arrive at the clay eating site at sunrise.
While we were waiting we heard some noise behind us and after a while we knew these were warthogs ( definitely safer than some other possibilities...)
The family of warthogs came closer and had picked up our scent but they had no clue where we were.
The huge male in this image was walking in front and stopped nearby to look in our direction.
You can clearly see both set of tusks of which the very sharp small ones are used for fighting other warthogs or for defense against predators. The larger ones are used for digging etc.
