A Stream Walk, A Mudlark; Weirs, Woods and Waterfalls.

I went climbing up weirs and waterfalls, through town and woodland and into the hills... looking for places and things of interest.
This is part three of a trek, starting off where I finished the 2nd part and finishing where I ran out of stream to walk in.
The 1st part: • Trains, Drains, and wa...
The 2nd Part: • A stream of many weirs...

33 minutes of total calm in a very hectic world. Thank you Tom.

Смотрю и слушаю Ваш голос, музыку и звуки природы. Язык не понимаю, настроила субтитры, но жаль, совсем не то. Релакс, наслаждение, покой для души, уходят волнения. Спасибо!

[@ZiptoZapto]

Beautiful quaint stream. Even if you don't find much, the calm walk is still a joy to watch.

[@tomburleigh9261]

Thank you, I agree, it was a beautiful stream. 🙂

[@spicencens7725]

You are so fortunate to live in such an interesting area Tom! The stonework around the stream is done by true craftsmen. Imagine living next to a small waterfall and leaving a window open year round, just to hear it! Very enjoyable explore no matter the finds or lack thereof, always!👍🏻❤

[@tomburleigh9261]

Thanks Spicencens, I do feel very fortunate to be living in this area. I lived within hearing range of a small river for most of my life, and fell asleep to its sound every night, it was nice and I kinda miss it. This place has its view though. 🙂

Magical Tom, walking those Yorkshire rivers/streams with you is a pure delight! Thank you so much for your efforts, this video was a great start to our Sunday morning. Pleased to see you getting your energy back.

[@desertrose2059]

Tom, your videos are relaxing and entertaining whether you find anything or not. They really help me get unstressed by listening to your soft voice and seeing the beauty there.

I enjoy your stream walks no matter the finds. Just listening to the water, your voice and music as well as just taking in the beautiful scenery. Thanks Tom, I hope this finds you well. Till next time...

Mother nature must love you! I’m so impressed on how much stuff you’re able to remove from the waterways over in your area. That’s just wonderful.

[@tomburleigh9261]

Thanks Nanc, I do what I can... and most of what I can do is show other people that there are things to find, and removing some trash along the way is pretty easy. 🙂

Happy you took the balloon. It would be terrible if an animal tried to eat it. I have enjoyed this series and hope you do film some more. Stay well.

[@tomburleigh9261]

Thanks Kathy, I agree, that thought motivates most of my removal of plastic and rubber. I'm glad you've enjoyed the series, I went out exploring some of the downstream parts this week, and am enthusiastic about the possibilities for filming 🙂.

[@jenmorricone4014]

We treat the earth like a giant toilet. Despite it all, how beautiful it is there streamside. Thank you so much for the ton of junk you've salvaged. I'm here in So. Cal. picking up things off our beach like plastic toys and big rusty fish hooks. May you be blessed beyond measure, Tom.

[@tomburleigh9261]

Too true Jen. I'm glad there are others pulling the trash back out of places that shouldn't have them. May you too be blessed beyond measure. 🙂

@@juneyshu6197 Unfortunately the amount of packaging and disposables that we all use here in the USA and other places makes us all complicit. Recycling only reduces waste by about 8 percent.

[@rikspector]

Tom, I pushed the wrong button and all my inspired thoughts about this walk went away,but looking at those ancient man made reminders of a long gone era, presented by you, are so relaxing. For me, not you:) A fellow youtuber from Pennsylvania, The Wandering Woodsman, quotes Tolkien, "Not All Who Wander Are Lost". You Wade in the waters but aren't lost :) AS fall deepens and Winter approaches, we know Spring won't be far behind and you will be there, guiding us through the past with your soft voice and cogent remarks.

[@stashedawayman1521]

Tom, no need for alarm about the plant at 11:42 you brushed up against. Rather than Hemlock Water Dropwort (Oenanthe crocata), of the Umbelliferae family, I think you found a garden escape of the white form of 'Jacob's Ladder' or 'Greek Valerian', Polemonium caeruleum. There were lots of garden escape plants along that stretch of river as it is probably used for disposing of unrequired vegetation and not just copper wire.

[@peggyreid6836]

Could the knobbly glass be a fancy cruet stopper minus the bottom? I've seen smaller versions of that sort of thing.

[@tomburleigh9261]

Ah, yes... that does seem like a strong possibility. I've seen cut glass ones, nothing quite like this, but it makes more sense than most of the other options. Thanks Louise. 🙂

[@lisafarr2317]

The knobbly glass could possibly be a screw in lamp shade from a 3 piece chandelier. My mother had 1.

At one point Gardeners World suggested putting polystyrene in pots to reduce the weight of them.

I took a long walk in a nearby forest today pretending to be as observant as you are. We are all ablaze in color here in New England, but nice to walk in "old" England on the same day. Thank you.

[@tomburleigh9261]

I wouldn't really recommend being as observant as I am, I see a lot that I wish I didn't. But if you do want it; I found out that I could supercharge it with exercise... I spent half an hour outside, trying to notice everything, and then wrote down every little detail that I could remember. Did it for a week, and became about 3 times as observant as I currently am now, lasted for months. 🙂

[@artieash6671]

Brilliant!

[@noraleestone2859]

I was happy to see your video pop up in my feed tonight. It's been a very chilly wet day here in southwestern Ontario. Winter is in a hurry to arrive. 🥶 So a ramble in a lovely steam, with ducks and beautiful greenery all around was just the ticket for my evening viewing. 😁😍 I had a few mad moments imagining you indiscriminately flinging objects up onto either bank. 🤣🤣 You chose wisely, though. 👍 I can't figure out how you ascend those weirs without slipping on algae. Your wellies must have studded treads. 😲😂 My condolences on your hard drive. I upgraded 7 months ago because I was starting to get nervous about that very issue. The downside is having to learn an entirely new operating platform. These days I often feel like a hostage to technology. 😮‍💨 Keep doing what you need to do for your best health & welfare, Tom. I'll see you again when you next pop up. 😊💛👍

Thank you Tom, that was the perfect accompaniment to sitting here quilting. I was intrigued by the strange lump of stone/fossilised wood, have you ever been back for it ? The immediate scenery of this particular part of the stream was lovely, considering there were houses so close by.

[@tomburleigh9261]

Thanks Christine. I haven't been back yet, and I don't know if I could actually carry that stone out of there. It would have to be in a padded backpack, and I don't know if any of the backpacks I have could stand that weight. It is a lovely section of stream, and I hope I can make it back there sometime soon 🙂. Though there's probably not enough in it to warrant another video.
