ALL GONE

I have just come in from a walk in the woods and all the snow has gone, this is a photo from last week when the sun was out. It was a grand morning, even the birds liked it, well may be.

PICNIC TABLE

FIRST LAMBS OF THE YEAR

This photo is taken through the windscreen so not too clear. Though not that early, its not the best time to be a newborn, these seem to be about a week old.(FOREST SHEEP ARE ALLOWED TO ROAM THATS WHY THEY ARE ON THE ROAD.)

YES...........MORE SNOW PICS

All the main roads around the forest are clear of snow , so we jumped into the car and drove to the centre of the forest and had a 2.5 hr walk in the snow,we must be mad !!! These photo,s taken yesterday.

SNOW

Today the weatherman got it spot on, so as my wife and i are still kids at heart, we went out for our afternoon walk. There is something nice about being the first person to walk though a field of snow. As i said, still kids.

????

ROBIN

It has been a bitterly cold day, frost has not moved off my lawns...Car in for a service and wife at work. So i played around in photoshop with this robin. But i will tell my wife i have been doing some of the housework.

SOME SORT OF VULTURE

I dont know what sort of bird this is, but i do know im not comfortable with a bird of this size being confined to a caged area. I know they are well looked after and a lot of the birds are flown everyday, but i cant imagine a bird this size flying to command.I think they should remain in the wild to fly free.

BLUE TIT

Just a light dusting of snow this morning .... no good for golf and not bright enough for photo's. So this a picture of a Blue Tit from yesterday.

ONE FROM THIS MORNING.

It started off a nice morning, so i went to try to capture some Jays.........NO !!! As much as i like these small birds, i wish i could get close to a few of the less common one's. You cant have it all.

COLD , DULL DAY.

Two more vanes that people around here like adorn their buildings with.

COAL TIT

I find it very hard to get a good photo of this bird, they seem never to stand still for more than a fraction of a second.

JAY

It's been a good day today. I have had the day to myself as my good lady has been at work. So with the sun out i thought i would try and take a photo of a Jay or a Coal Tit, and i managed to do both. It has been a good day.

MORE MACRO

Beer bubbles around the top of a glass......Solarized.... Then drank .... Lovely.

ROBIN

It has been a grey and foggy day all day, no good for photos. But 1st thing in the morning ....GOLF.

FIRST PHOTO OF 2013...NUTHATCH

Looking back though my files i see that this was the first pic i took this year. It was a lovely sunny morning i seem to recall.

WET DAY MACRO

Taken one afternoon of washing up bubbles changed to black and white , Ive changed this 3 times today ....you can tell ive only got half my sight in one eye.

FEMALE CHAFFINCH

I HOPE THAT 2013 IS A GREAT YEAR TO YOU ALL
