Habitat

There appears to be a nearly continuous pool of water looking downstream. Very scummy at bridge but it clears up as you look further down, however upstream the water is mainly dried up. No sign of any wildlife today it is 29 degrees. There is some fresh gorse weeds growing near the bridge on the bank. I will attach some photos in diary.
