Tuesday I went to Wheldrake and the Derwent Valley National Nature Reserve; a lovely marsh / flood lands area. I saw my first Swallows of the summer as well as Teal and Egrets, and also this ancient wind pump. It was the opposite of a well-oiled machine. Despite quite a strong wind it would only occasionally creak and crank into rusty action before stopping in exhaustion a couple of minutes later.
