Deer take a bath
July’s exceedingly hot temperatures have given the UK the highest ever July recorded temperature of 36.5C.
Train lines have buckled, tarmac melted and zoo-keepers have been handing out ice lollies to keep their animals cool.
Bushy Park Deer have had to resort to their own methods for keeping cool – wading into the various ponds and staying in the shade that the trees provide.
Seen at Leg of Mutton Pond.
