Watching them skim their breast feathers across the water surface and hoover up all the may flys in the morning sun....The start of peak district hill in the background. A perfect start to the day.

I have seen few swallows yesterday at Raglan Castle. It felt like back home, lol.
Lovely picture Pimp. It's raining here in Wales. Let's not be that pessimistic - it's just showers and overcast, lol. Could be worse;-)

Hi Pimpernel, Gorgeous view, lucky you, to be local. Not a lot of water here, only the ever increasing water butts because of the hose pipe ban :((
