One of our friendlier birds and a companion on a beechcombing wander at the weekend, this little Robin tried its hardest to look good!
Posing for a photo when the wind is blowing is not easy though!

Wind Blown
From Bill To The Anvil
From the quarry ledges beneath the old chapel at St. Aldhelm's Head you can see the lighthouses at Portland Bill and Anvil point. Although there was a cold, lazy wind blowing from the north, the sky was clear and you could see for miles.
One of my favourite places.
(a lazy wind, according to chap I used to know, is one that is too lazy to blow around you and so cuts straight through).

Tony's Horses
These horses always remind me of the chargers used by Knights in the Middle Ages. They are lovely animals and seem to fit nicely on the reserve behind where I live. I pass through here on the way to the cliffs of Durlston.
Rest in peace, Tony

The Long Distant Gannets
That is the only type of Gannet I tend to see, they do come closer to shore, but not often enough.
They are always good to see though, even better when you can catch them diving for food.
Little Legs
I have bumped in to this chap and his mum several times over the last few weeks but have not managed to take a shot. I was quite lucky this time and managed to get quite close.
