Today, the river is flowing slower. In some places it is wide, flat and brown. It’s still quite full though.
There’s a Magpie here at the Other Side Bench, which is on the other side of the river from my house. The Magpie’s getting hassled by a Willie Wagtail, who’s a much smaller bird. Wherever the Magpie goes the Wagtail follows, hopping around him, swooping and nipping at him.
The Duck has just seen us. He waddled comically across the grass to us.
