what started out as a gentle summer walk along the Kennet & Avon canal (between two pubs, the Butt Inn and the Rowbarge and back again) turned into a bit of an adventure when Charlie the Westie decided that canal water tasted good and it didn't look that deep!
Fortunately he remembered doggie paddle and was hauled out looking rather sorry for himself and a little warier from that point on.
I didn't take any pics of the walk today (I should have it was quite beautiful) but here's the route walked (almost 4½ miles)
Also spotted were some black-winged dragon flies - I have only seen those with clear wings so far and lots of butterflies.
With a little research I discovered they were male Banded Demoiselles - and stunning they were though none of those I saw would sit still enough for a photo like this one!!!

Glad the pup is ok and that is an incredible dragonfly.
