This week I search for the elusive water vole. It doesn't work out but I'm far from disappointed

The water vole has become very hard to find these days and I knew my trip to Cromford canal in the Derbyshire Peak District may not be a fruitful one. However, I don't come away disappointed as I find the best location ever for little grebe (dab chick) Not only are they abundant but are far less wary of humans due to the number of people walking the canal. I really couldn't have got better images with beautiful autumn light.
