Blue skies, a light breeze and small waves. Not good for surfers, but great if you are a Black Headed Gull and you need to wash your feet.

Sika. The Dog, Not The Deer

Don't tell anyone, but I am a bit of a soft touch where animals are concerned. This is a new addition to our family and we are calling her Sika. I found her a couple of days ago, near a herd of deer that I was watching and spent quite a while sitting on the verge trying to get her to come to me. Eventually, she relented and came for a cuddle. She is a real beauty but very thin and rather timid. We have had all the checks done and put the word around in case someone has lost her.The original plan was to get her to a rescue kennels, but I'm not sure we can let her go now.

Black & Blue

Hopefully, with the prospect of a fine weather weekend I shall get a little more time to play at being a photographer. Lately, I have been struggling to find the time to get out and about.

Quiet but never silent.

I missed the Sun this morning, not because I was late but because the early wander was done and dusted by the time the clouds cleared. When...
