Fenny Compton Wharf to below Claydon Flight of locks, Oxford Canal
A perfect morning, blue sky and bright warm sun as we wait for Trinders Taxis to take us to Tesco Banbury for a big shop.
Shopping done, lunch over, we proceeded down the canal and down the locks at Claydon to moor ready to tackle the Cropredy flight tomorrow in good time for a Sunday lunch at one of the pubs there, when the Trinder branch of the family may be able to join us.
The bridge picture shows the Stockton Road bridge, the first canal bridge Vagabond travelled over! after being born in 2007, and leaving the steelfabricators.
Our photo today was of this unidentified breed of duck - any ideas?

I think it might be a widgeon
Hi Sarah
Thanks for your suggestion of widgeon - difficult to say as bird was probably very young, and we suspect it may have also had a light coating of diesel at the time!
