Howabout these wonderful clips from a garden on the edge of the village...
"The Sprint"
"The Swim" (watch the bush towards the left carefully for the first siting.....)
OK - so not such a good event for the fish that were living in the pond, but some of you are probably delighted to see these clips of these fabulous creatures back romping in our countryside.
Many many thanks to Andy Beswick for sending us these marvellous videos.
Any of you with prize-winning Koi might want to beware, though.....
