The months of June and July are really the best time to be walking along the canal, if the sun and light is right. You get fantastic greens and browns. I treat the canal as an extension of my back garden, and feel a sense of ownership. I started walking along it regularly two years ago, to help repair my back, and wondered why I had not done it years before. Funnily enough, my back is playing up again. The picture of a heron fishing was taken a week ago
