Walking With Robins - Part 02
w/e 21 February 2021
All of this week's
pictures were taken with a Kodak DX6490
The old dog limped past us and we continued along
the canal towpath.

A little further on another robin landed at the edge of the path
between the patches of snow but flew into the hedge as we approached.
We dropped a handful of bird food and it returned to enjoy a
feast all by itself.

As we neared the point where the path on the other side of the
disused canal crosses to this side, snow and ice created some
interesting patterns. Is it just me or can anyone else see the
shape of a polar bear?

At this point yet another robin settled on a twig overhanging
the canal fluffing its feathers against the cold. Word must have
been getting round so we dropped some more food.

Another crossing of the canal leads to Millennium Park but we
remained on this side.

The towpath drops down a little to cross the bridge over Coronation
Road whilst the canal continues at the higher level to also cross
the road in the aqueduct.

Seen from the bridge and under the aqueduct is the area known
as Cossall Marsh with the road straight ahead to Awsworth and
the junction on the right at the white house of Church Lane which
leads up to Cossall Village.

And guess what? More robins were at the bridge and settled on
the buttress for a quick feed.

We continued over the bridge and followed the path up to join
the Nottingham Canal again.

It's only a short walk now to Gin Close Way but with that in
sight we crossed a footbridge over the canal to complete the
walk on the other side.

And here once again we were accompanied by more robins so it's
a good job we still had some food left.
