Flood Works

The Water of Leith at the bridge on Newhaven Road.  They are considerably narrowing the stream and building up the bank.  It seldom floods but has caused a fair bit of damage in the past.

Chick

This fellow was wandering around in an urban environment and I was a bit concerned that the gulls would get it.  Then when you look at the feet, it is a gull,  I think. They are just a menace in the city. You can see where the dinosaurs went.

Tony

We haven't featured Tony for a while.  here he is as evening falls.  Looks like he is sitting in a nest having gathered some debris.  At this point the walkway is an elevated construction.

Work Garden

Like the economy the "work garden" isn't doing so well this year, blooming but not in profusion.
