The weather was overcast with occasional fine rain on our meet on Sunday 26th February 2017, with much more rain forecast for later in the day. More litter and rubbish was visible now - we took the opportunity on this last meet of the winter to collect every item spotted before Spring growth takes hold. On Tuesday 1st March we tested out the possibility of using fish 'landing nets' with an expanding lightweight pole to reach out to collect things out of reach on the river and banks. The trial worked.
Many robins were singing loudly along the river, guarding their chosen territory.
This one is perched on a Willow, with catkins just appearing on the outer branches.
