Nature's Bounty!

Following the recent storms, the last few mornings have seen us taking very soggy doggy walks in Rickerby Park. The River Eden regularly floods the park and usually, the debris left is made up of small logs, dead green matter and plastic waste, such as feed sacks from agricultural land up stream. But this week some absolutely huge tree trunks have been beached way above the normal bank line of the river. Some of them must weigh hundreds, if not thousands of pounds and yet the flood water has effortlessly moved them as if they were matchsticks. Nature is awesome
