Swans at Northam Bridge on the river Itchen on Wednesday. These are more often seen near Cobden Bridge, further up the river. #walk #walking #swans #Itchen #Southampton

And then rain stopped play - Kingfishers, Mandarin Ducks, Mallards, Mute Swans, Cormorants presumably all ducking for cover too.

Despite the brolly of Jonathan Spencer, architect of this adventure, the sun occasionally shone on the lucid waters of the River Itchen as it hurried, swollen by rains, over the brilliant white chalk gravels inhabited by caddis fly larvae. #Chalkstreams #Winchester #Itchen 6/11

Because you can never have too many Brown Trout....

You may have noticed one of the Brown Trout in the previous video carrying a fish leech - maybe Piscicola geometra? - here you get a better view of it.

Here the Brown Trout jostle for position to hear the words of the master, Roger Harrison, up on the bank...

A handsome Pike about a yard long - who nearly ran me over on our first encounter! - was bemused at our presence in his domain in the River Itchen & kept coming to inspect my progress #Pike #freshwaterfish #RiverItchen #Itchen #Chalkstreamshtag/Chalkstreams" class="hover:underline text-blue-600 dark:text-sky-400 no-card-link">#Chalkstreams #Chalkstream #Alresford #Hampshire 4/12

With huge thanks to @anicolson for the introduction & Roger Harrison for sharing his slice of paradise, here's a thread on the enchanting River Itchen downstream of Alresford, my 1st experience of crème de la crème of #chalkstreams.

Stands of Branched Bur-reed fringe River Itchen, softened by the late summer candy floss hues of Meadowsweet, Common Valerian & Hemp Agrimony. Lime loving Perforate St John's Wort along the banks & Wild Privet in the scrub.

Along the banks of the River Itchen, magnificent clumps of Greater Tussock Sedge, Great Willowherb and, less welcome, a poisonous recent arrival, Hemlock Water Dropwort.
