Life along the canal: April 8 2021
Yesterday, in my office, I felt extremely bored and tired, so I decided to go for a walk along a nearby canal. I used to run here, but I am now very unfit after 12 months of lock down, so walking is the only option really :(
Anyway, there are lots of boats moored along the canal, among them these peculiar things. These seem to be some sort of signed off military or scientific craft - no idea really, but I saw at least 5 of these in my 45 minute walk.
I also found that someone estaished three beehives on the other side of the canal, which I think is a wonderful idea as bees are great polinators.
The bees were buzzing away despite our cold weather spell
It was also nice to see swans setting up their nest somewhere more secluded.
Life goes on..

I was just at a farm supply store today and saw some kits to set up bee hives. I might would like to try that, but my husband is allergic. Not a good combination! I love the swan picture, and is that a tiny baby swan swimming close by? Excellent job with your 16599 @actifit steps for the day. Take care my friend and keep on steppin'!
Thanks a lot for your kind words! Being allergic to bee stings while living in the countryside is unfair. I am fine with bees - my granparents used to have three beehives so I got stung all the time when holidaying with them every summer; in the end, I got so used to it that I would only have a mild irritation around the sting. My grandma also used to catch a bee and make it sting her in her back - she believed it helped with back pain. This was in the middle or Russian countryside in the old Soviet Union days.
Wow! I'm not sure I could stand being stung in the back. Many years ago while putting polyurethane on a door I was finishing, I had the misfortune to get stung in the shoulder blade by a yellow jacket (granted, not a honey bee at all, lol). I had a 6 inch ring that swelled up. Not fun. As a child, I would play in the grass and there was lots of clover. Not a summer went by that I didn't put my hand down to prop myself up, and would manage to get nailed by a grazing honey bee.
Thanks for commenting, and take care; have a wonderful day!
