Tortworth Snowdrops and Lake, three weeks later

We walked around the beautiful snowdrop walk near Cromhall and the Tortworth Estate three weeks ago. Then the snowdrops hadn't reached their peak yet, not even open. Today although they were wide open, they were past their best.
Severn Bore

A large bore had been forecast. Combined with beautiful sunshine and it being a fairly late morning tide on a Saturday, I figured it would be a busy one.
