Heron and Shopping Trolley


I went for a walk alongside the river Aire today.  The river must be cleaner than it used to be judging by the variety of birds and other wildlife you can see there, but there is still too much plastic and other junk.  What I thought was a shopping trolley when I took the picture looks more like a pushchair, it doesn't seem to bother the heron at all though.

Bradford Mela 2026


Young singer and songwriter performing on the stage at the Bradford Mela today.  I'm not sure if this is correct, but I think it's thirteen years since the last Mela was held in the city.
