There has been heavy rain in the area and it is great. I can almost hear my garden breathing a sigh of relief.
Here is the scene at Ponte a Serraglio from the previous post. It looks completely different in the rain.




The mountains are surrounded by swirling mist and clouds.



My view at Casa Debbio completely disappears in mist, only to reappear minutes later.




Geraniums in the mist…

The rain has been very welcome. If we get a bit more there might be some porcini mushrooms in the forest.
The birds at Ponte seem happy to see more water. I spotted a gorgeous grey heron (I think) looking for fish. He was about 1 metre tall. The white one is about half that size.

 

 


It’s great to see birds on the river. I hope it means that the ecosystem is healthy.
