Water Lily pads on the Brownsover Arm
This tranquil stretch of the disused Brownsover Arm of the Oxford Canal features numerous rafts of water lily (Nymphaeaceae) pads; it's a pity they weren't in bloom as they have beautiful flowers that float on the water.

Mute Swan (Cygnus olor) on Brownsover Arm
The Mute Swan (Cygnus olor) is one of the world's heaviest flying birds with a weight for males of up to 20kg (44lbs) The example seen here is probably more like 11kg (23lbs) - it is probably a male as it has a notable 'knob' at the top of its beak (females have these too but they're usually less prominent). This one was floating about on the disused Brownsover Arm of the Oxford Canal. Cf (probable) female with cygnets Image]
