Easter Greetings

It most certainly doesn't feel like Easter - it's hard even to keep track of what day it is, and that's even though I am still working. But, according to the calendar, Easter it is - so here are my greetings, taken along the canal on Saturday morning.  I believe we saw three different duckling families. Until the little ones are old enough to fly, we'll probably keep on finding them in the same place down near the lock. I'm not sure what the white egg is from - it was at the edge of the path under a tree absolutely wreathed in ivy. But I'm pretty sure it wasn't a duck egg, as it was along the stretch where the canal runs through a cutting and is a lot lower than the path.
