This Canada goose was quite entertaining to watch. I also loved the pretty ripples emanated by its movements.

some random pieces of driftwood I gathered from the Thames

Just walked by the river and couldn’t resist collecting some driftwood. I’ll be transforming them later, but for now I’m simply admiring and imagining all the things I can and will create 🎨

Crawdad exploration 🦞
Couldn’t identify the species of this dead one I found, but it was cool trying to piece it back together for a drawing.

Was also very handy to have archaeologists on hand, as we stepped out of the River Nar, to identify our finds - they said the top of a huge, possibly Roman, flagon, and a silver ball that could be a 17thC button! Thank you West Acre Village Fete! #mudlarking #riverfinds 14/15
