SOS River Wye Picture

 

Here's the picture that was shared on Facebook, by Friends of the Upper Wye, from the drone.  About 130 people made up the letters of the SOS, all of them either citizen scientists who have been testing the water of the River Wye, or other friends and helpers of the project.  I was there as blogger - I'm the one in black at the bottom of the 'O' nearest the camera.

On the way home, I passed Father Richard and his two poodles, on his way to the beach at the end of the gathering - I presume he'd been taking Evensong at 6pm, which was when the gathering at the Warren started.  He has his own project coming up about the River Wye, in August, so of course had an interest in what the citizen scientists are doing.
