For my #wednesdaywalk by @tattoodjay, we made a second visit to walk around Alvaston Park in Derby. It's quite a big park so it takes two visits to see it all.
It was quite a dull, crisp day. Winter seems to be knocking on autumn's door and saying "winter's here!"
The model boat group were out again. It was too cold for me to stand around though, so we had a quick walk around the lake.
You can tell the swans are well fed here as they all seem to be quite friendly with each other. They're usually quite territorial, but if there's a lot of food about they seem to rub alongside one another.
There is some artwork in the park to commemorate sports stars and the Olympics. The five rings symbolise the five continents of Europe, Africa, Asia, America, and Oceania.
I usually enjoy my walks but it was too cold today. Time to get the winter woollies out!
