When the snow comes the aesthetic change is quite obvious, where as the acoustic change is more subtle and this brings a stillness to the landscape. My walk today on the marshes was a wonderful duo-tone of colour and was only broken twice, once by the flash of orange from a passing fox and nearing my journey’s end the shrill of two sparrow hawks seeing off a rather brave but very large crow.
Walthamstow, Leyton & Hackney marshes in winter.

Hi John,
Have you had any luck with the pike yet? Perhaps not right now but a few trip out soon is on the cards as is some perch fishing, I’m just trying to decide where to start?
