Interesting that our best experiences in London have involved natural history. There was George Monbiot the other night. Today we went to the London Wetlands Center. It operates a vast restored wetland in the southern part of London. There were huge numbers of water birds. A few were familiar, but most were species we do not know. Very beautiful creatures. They are also protecting otters, and trying to restore populations of aquatic voles. We were both quite impressed with the work they are doing, and I plan to keep in touch. There is an article in this!
We are rushing again tonight, so I am being brief. London is a very interesting city, I have a feeling we will pass through here again in some ways. There are hidden treasures, like the one we found today. We leave tomorrow for 2 days in Wales, I think we will have internet access from there. If not, expect to hear from us Sunday as we prepare to fly across the pond. Be well, all.
