Golden Evenings, Foxes and Roe Deer.

Last nights wander was just about perfect, a beautiful setting Sun, a slight breeze, several Foxes, a Badger and a Roe Deer.
I think that the Roe Deer is our most beautiful animal and at this time of year it is looking its best.
Foxes too are a favourite. A wild Fox, in its own environment, is also great to watch. They have the most expressive eyes in the business and it is easy to think that if you look into those deep brown eyes you may well lose a part of yourself for ever.

Sunset On Old Walls

Finally, I had a chance to get out and wander. Tonight took me along the ridge near the ranges and back towards Corfe Castle, just in time to see the last of the Sun on the old walls.

 

 

The Young and the Restless

We have a garden full of youngsters at the moment. Apart from the Sparrows, Starlings, Dunnocks, Robins etc we have had a visit from one of this years Squirrels. Not everyone's favourite, but they are always great to watch.

Turned out nice again!

After a particularly grotty, low cloud, dreary kind of day we have sun and a beautiful evening.
This is St.Aldhelm's Head, one of my favourite places.

The Wild Side of Purbeck

I am knee deep in prints and frames, but really looking to this.

Happy Father's Day

Saturday Sika

 Looking just about as good as they get to look, there may not be much sunshine around this weekend, but a walk to find these chaps is always fun.
I now have to make the choice whether to mow the lawn of disappear for a few hours....

I know I'm being boring, but if you are lucky enough to stumble across a young Sika or Roe deer, just take a photo and please keep on moving.

They are incredibly cute but are often left for hours at a time by their mothers. If they are touched, or stroked, or handled in any way (and I fully understand why anyone would want to do this) the chances are that they will be abandoned and the cry of a lost youngster is truly awful!
Anyway, sorry about the lecture and I really hope that you see one....from a distance....
