Linacre Reservoir is a lovely and peaceful place in the middle of nature.
As you walk around the reservoir, you will come across a variety of wildlife, including Canada geese, with their fluffy looking goslings. It is so good to see new life on the water. The parents lead their youngsters, teaching them everything they know with the goslings sticking close to their protective parents.
Squirrels can also be spotted scurrying around the trees and bushes that line the reservoir. They are funny little things.
The lovely lush trees that surround the reservoir provide shelter for the wildlife. The vibrant greenery of the trees definitely gives the place a pop of colour after the bare winter months ....
... especially with the pink and white flowers of the rhododendron bushes.
Linacre Reservoir is not just a place to walk or see wildlife – it is a quiet place away from the humdrum of life. So if you ever find yourself in need of a moment of peace and quiet, take a stroll out into the countryside.
