    Default River Kennet at Hungerford

    This is a lovely stretch of the river, at this stage still crystal clear as it comes from the downs. In the third photo there is a fly fisherman on the left hand side, theis stretch is known for its Trout.

    The reed beds in the first photo are home to little Grebe, Coot, Moorhen and Water Vole, I have a couple of not so great photos of the Little Grebe as they were going about obtaining nesting material.
