Impressionistic painting of the Tiverton Canal at Holbrook Bridge with ducks swimming past.

Tiverton canal at the Holbrook Bridge, Devon

The canal is a remarkable place to walk, cycle or just sit and enjoy the view. A a thin ribbon of water full of interesting wildlife and scenery. In the early summer the ducklings and other young waterfowl can easily be spotted. Ducking in and out of the reeds following their parents. Dragonflies and damselflies emerge throughout spring and summer. They zip around and perch on the vegetation only being disturbed as we pass them by. A popular yet mostly tranquil place.
