From January 2020

 We've got a Muscovy duck on the pond.
It's been here since about last August or September. Apparently it and its mate departed a farm in Shireoaks (a village to the west of Worksop) and the female stopped on the canal at Wood End about half way between its home and here.

The pond from the North



Apiaceae or Umbelliferae is a family of mostly aromatic flowering plants commonly known as the celery, carrot or parsley family.
In a garden across the canal there's often a squirrel or two foraging on the lawn and in the trees.
