Birds and Bike

Baits Bite this morning.

I like the shadow of the head and neck of one Canada Goose on the other.   The morning light is magical at this time of year and provides searing lights in the eyes of birds.

As for the bicycle;  I don't think I've seen a 'rescued' bike underneath the arches of the A14 crossing The Cam before.   I guess it has been in the river, but not for that long because the tyres and hand grips haven't deteriorated that much.   Thoroughly mis-shapen wheels give it quite a graphic shape.   I found myself reflecting on its history - how many owners (legitimate and not), short or long bike rides, why dumped here, why get it out of the river, who might be missing it, and now what.............?
