Making a Splash - The Water Vole Olympics in Derbyshire!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this action-packed photo, we witness the incredible athleticism of the Water Vole (Arvicola terrestris) as it gracefully glides across the surface of Cromford Canal in Derbyshire, England. With its sleek body and webbed feet, this adult vole shows off its impressive swimming skills with style. It's August in Northern UK, and our furry friend is taking full advantage of the summer sunshine. As it elegantly maneuvers through the waterway, you can almost hear cheers from fellow voles on the riverbanks. This little mammal is definitely making waves! The Cromford Canal provides a picturesque backdrop for this extraordinary display of nature's wonders. The tranquil waters reflect the vibrant greenery that lines its banks, creating an idyllic setting for our adventurous vole to show off its aquatic prowess. With every stroke and kick, this water-loving creature reminds us that even small beings can achieve great things when they dive into life headfirst – or should we say "paw-first"? It serves as a playful reminder to embrace new challenges and make a splash wherever we go. So next time you find yourself near a canal or riverbank in beautiful England during summertime, keep your eyes peeled for these marvelous creatures. Who knows? You might just witness another thrilling performance by these talented swimmers!
