I saw some of the fish that live in the Stack Pool of Spring Field Park today. Normally I don't get a chance to see them, spending much of their time as they do at the bottom of the pool or further out toward the centre of it; but today I did. There were around eight of them, ranging in size from one titchy one around three inches long to two or three that were almost as long as my entire arm, and they were all swimming and splashing about near the surface in the shallowest part of the pool by the bank. They seemed to be picking at a plant that had its foliage dangling just below the surface and I watched in awed fascination for several minutes as they feasted and a few of them began scrapping with one another over what appeared to be the optimum feeding position.
My word, most of them were so big! It was great to watch them.
Anyway. Just wanted to share that.
Toodles.
