1) Blue Barge.
2) Red Barge.
3) some kind of duck and her ducklings
4) Wild flower - I haven't the foggiest what it is. I'm sure Dave will know(he's a mine of horticultural information)
5) Duck sunning herself on her nest - have forty winks I think.
6) Woodbine(the plant) not the fag...also known as Honeysuckle.
7) A damsel fly.
8) Two Damsel flies....doing what damesel flies do to make sure they don't go extinct.
9) A leaf made shiny by honeydew.
10) Rosa Canis...a wild Dog Rose.
