foxes running along the bank of the Asker last night during the floods and lashing rain. see video one here The second clip of the two of them can be seen here.

As the afternoon progressed the level of the Asker rose to heights not seen for decades. The meadows fulfilled their role of water meadows gathering the flood waters and slowing the rush downstream. The gravel path from East Bridge to Morrisons disappeared under water.

The Asker is in flood but the Egret is having a lovely time fishing along the edge.  To watch the egret catching a snack click here. To watch more of its beautiful shuffle dance click here.
