Red soil, green fields with rolling hills: it has to be Devon, glorious Devon.
“Red and green should never be seen” doesn’t apply in Devon, thinking of the design rule.
Views of the Blackdown Hills, Brendon Hills, Quantock Hills and the Vale of Taunton on a family walk out from Hockworthy on the Devon/Somerset border. Also the green roads, woodland, farms and quarries.
Big cat in the trees in Preston Park, Brighton exercising its tiger fantasies by trying to stalk the birds.
Never a credible threat to the birdlife but gets the sparrow gangs cheeping from other trees, safely out of range. The fat cat gave up and landed (heavily) on the ground, primal instincts satisfied and returning to being a consumer of organic salmon as a treasured household pet.
Sunset at high tide on Hammersmith Reach on the River Thames in West London. Two photos of the same sunset to compare and contrast the trees on the Surrey side with the steel and glass architecture on the Middlesex side, to use the Boat Race terminology.
Not quite walking on a grave, but I was amazed to see on a pavement the once-famous name of the television company that gave us Ready Steady Go and many other pioneering ITV shows. Rediffusion also made their name as providers of television set rental and the first generation of cable television connections, which was the reason for this manhole cover in Brighton.
I’m never gardening alone in Keswick, there are lots of fluffy things flying around and on the ground. Some I see and some never show their little faces. Here are photos of some of this week’s fluffy friends. The eyes of the different animals are quite distinctive, giving us a view in to their world, from the wide-eyed innocence of the fledgling taking its first bath to the scared rabbit and field mouse, always on the lookout for death from above.
