Walking this morning while the light was still fresh brightly shimmering on the river and highlighting the hedges… I collected on my phone the sounds of water, and photos of trees, starting out in Abbotts Ann, I headed toward Monxton and on the hill down into the village that was where I saw my first maybe-ash tree.

I took some photos to compare with James’ ash tree identification guide just to be sure.

I headed back home under the railway bridge and back up Duck street, seeing three more rainbows and two teddies on fences and in windows to cheer passers by.
