Heron, Clydach

Wildlife on the Canal

[singlepic id=79 w=320 h=240 float=none]The Heron is a regular visitor.  This picture of him was taken in Clydach, near the Vale Inco Works.

The kingfishers are proving much too illusive to capture on camera, but are there nevertheless.

There is a natural colony of bees that have been thriving successfully for many years in a tree along the tow path.
