My World (12)
Continuing our walk along Granthams Canal - Taking in the plant life -A little rest - leaning on the fence and just gazing around -
Until we reach the Watering Hole - The Dirty Duck. We take our pint outside and watch -
The graceful swans on the Canal.
Grantham Canal to be continued at a later date. - Next week - we visit Belvoir Castle for an outside concert with Catherine Jenkins.... so hope to see you all there?.
Now that's a lovely walk culminating in a little time at the pub. The Dirty Duck is a fine name for such establishment I believe. Out here, there is a Mallard Room, which is a watering hole as well. Now why are these establishments named after ducks?????
Again a great set of images. Love the seeds been blown from the flower head. well captured. Thanks for sharing your world with us and thanks for your kind comments.

I'm enjoying the walk around the canal but it'll be fun to take a short break and visit a castle next week.
You Dirty Duck! Love pub names and the virtual walk so welcome in this day of concrete and glass.
Mac: Fun end to your walk and I loved the swan capture, nicely done.
Great picture, I like the only of the fluffy seeds.
Excellent post and photos. I'm sure you had great time there.
Beautiful walk, and the swan is fabulous!

A nest place to walk. Very relaxing. Thank you for sharing.
Imac, thanks for the walk and the beautiful photos! The swan is a very beautiful animal.
I love the swan! Looks like a nice walk along the canal.
Looks like a lovely walk on a beautiful sunny day with a real nice stop at the end.
The Dirty Duck...I like that. Might have to add it to the UK tour I hope to make sometime.
I love 'em all, Imac. Especially that goose! God bless.

Great walk. Glad we stopped for that pint. Could I park my RV at the Dirty Duck?
From one duck to another ... I think you win, though - mine didn't have a liquor license.
What a lovely place and i also love that close up shot of the swan
Love the second photo. Great post.
The fluff of a cattail brings warmth in the midst of winter. Thanks for bringing us along on your stroll through Nature.
You're feeding us one worm at a time! They are pretty good worms though so we always come back for more. The first is just yummy.
So many beautiful photos, but the swan is definitely the best!
Swans, a lovely prize! And yours is pretty much a lovely place for photos! And I love the photo below too (the sailor bird).
Thank you for sharing your beautiful walk with us on My World!
