Spits and spots of rain as we set off this morning, but it didn’t last very long, busy times at the Big Lock, even early on a Sunday morning.

After lunch we took a walk through Anderton Nature Park to the River Weaver, then the Anderton Boat Lift, and back along the towpath. Soon after we set off we came across this blackbird sunbathing at the edge of the footpath.
