'Thames' Fly Catchers

The Thames river is on the edge of campus. I had to carefully trek down a steep embankment
through the trees to the fast moving river. I was surprised at the color of the water,
which was green & blue in tone. I spent a lovely 25 minutes on the shore skipping stones and watching the birds dive in and
out again.
