Runnymede and the River Thames

Some more details from Tom's walk out yesterday ...sunshine too!

Runnymede looking towards Cooper's Hill Slopes- the only relief on the landscape!

An old oxbow lake, Langham pond is a fantastic little site, although there was considerably less visible life compared to last time I saw it in the late summer.

An unusual sight! This was the first buzzard I've seen down here since I moved in mid-September and their absence had always surprised me, however on seeing my first one I quickly realised why as it was mobbed by a pair of red kites- a more common sight! 

Buzzard and a red kite swiftly moving down to mob it.
