“Oh, what a tangled web we weave
When first we practice to deceive!”
From Marmion by Sir Walter Scott, 1808

Photo of trees at Winkworth Arboretum which appear to be in a tangle. Long shadows from the sun that has broken through the mist.

2 cormorants on branches just above the lake & 2 about to take off at Winkworth Arboretum, Surrey Hills on Wednesday. (I’m not sure whether that’s a cormorant on a branch in middle. It looks more like a heron.)
