Just out of reach
Super hot day today and a walk along the river with plenty of opportunities to take a plunge!
We found this long abandoned water trough hidden by nettles and other plants - how we have missed this before, we'll never know!
My hooman was busy taking pictures of the water snails and upside down bugs (#30DaysWild) when I decided to get in on the act ... dropping my ball right in there.
backswimmers (Notonecta glauca)
I attempted to get it back by balancing on the sides and trying to coax the ball back to me by dipping my paw in the water but in the end, I just jumped in and the water - once clear - was then muddy!! Poor bugs!!

Well...you must cool off and get your ball!
