Despite poor light my husband more in hope than expectation put out a woodpigeon in our tiny garden to see if he could induce the female sparrow hawk to return after yesterday ‘robbery ‘ to allow me a photo opportunity.
It was so surprising to see what happened as he she flew swiftly over the garden then did a typical rapid sparrow hawk u turn and swooped into the bird which this time my husband had weighed down as yesterday she stole the bird before I could take better images.
She stayed on that pigeon for over an hour while I sat in the conservatory with doors wide open and froze but I dare not move so I had ,before she arrived ,set the camera up and had the remote in my hands and all I did was to click away as events unfolded.
These are the images that she presented and to be honest it made my day justifying getting so s cold but that ci up of tea afterwards was very welcome.
"Here lyes in hope and expectation of the joyfull and disyred day of resurrection when the Saviour of the world shall appeare in power and judgment, to awake all those who have slept in Him, to be partakers of the everlasting happiness of the eternall kingdome, Sir Henry Sydney, knight, discended from the stemme of Viscount Lisle, Baron of Penshurst in Kent. Lorde Chamberleyn to the Queenes majestie and governoure of Flushing
His youth was seasoned with the feare of God, duty towards his parents and love to learning, his following aged yielded fruites of hospitality towards all the men of charitie, towards the poore, of faithfulness towards his friendes, and of peaceablenes amongst his neighbours. He and his end was concluded with piety, with patience and with a comfortable farewell at the tearme of 59 yeares, the 2d of November Anno Domini 1612
Here (joynd as well in ye safe hope of a joyfull resurrection as in all piety and conjugall love to the sayd Sir Henry Sidney) rests the body of Dame Jane his wife, daughter of Francis Jermy of Brightwell in Suffolk, esq, who after her peregrination of 73 yeares injoying 28 thereof in the happy society of her sayd husband and continuing his name and memory for 28 more (in a most chast and retired widowhood) upon the 9th of August 1638 departed this life . No lady lived more christiany nor dyed more happily, many daughters have done virtuously but thou excellest them all (proverbs 31.29)"
Henry was the son of Thomas Sydney 1585 & Barbara 1585 daughter of William Walsingham 1534 & Joyce Denny 1496 widow of John Carey & sister of Sir Francis Walsingham
He was the grandson of Agnes & Thomas Sydney 1544 who was employed by the townsmen to buy the priory lands for the town, but on paying £90 to the Crown, kept it for himself.
As the inscription says Henry was Lorde Chamberlain to Queen Elizabeth & Governor of Flushing.
He succeeded his brother Thomas husband of Mary Southwell who died without issue.
He m 1581 Jane (aged 16) daughter of Francis Jermy of Brightwell & Margaret heiress of Thomas Tey of Brightwell & Stutton
Having no children, Henry left all his properties to Jane, and on her death they passed to Robert Sidney, Earl of Leicester and thence to other families.

Now lying under the west window, their monument once lay in the Sidney chapel here, but was damaged by the fire of 1961 www.flickr.com/gp/52219527@N00/t0K5f6 which also destroyed the jacobean font cover given by Jane www.flickr.com/gp/52219527@N00/o9LW8J She also gave 4 acres of land to support the church minister "for ever"!

For Maggies Klimt challenge. I used leaf metal for the background and added some gems to the main collage image to reflect Klimt's use of jewellery. Still undecided about whether this is finished or not! Might add some embossing..... I used to be indecisive...now I'm not so sure!!!!!!!!!!!!!!LOL
