A return trip to WWT Slimbridge in Gloucestershire in mid November 2024.

Early morning grab shot of this Common Curlew as it flew low over the outer fields at Slimbridge. ( Flight sequence, 2 of 3 )

The Curlew is the largest European wading bird, found on estuaries in winter and moors in summer.

We'll all have to think of ways to pass the time and keep us going, now we're in lock down. Hopefully we'll be able to continue with short walks - this view is from a spot about 15 minutes walk from my house, looking across Padfield and Tintwistle to the hills beyond.

Stay safe!

PS - spot the plane!

Found this windmill on the backroads about a year ago, and then promptly forgot about it. Found it again in my back files. Will I ever find it again in real life? Doubtful.

in Yugoslavia, around 1960

I think this is Gračanica church.

I was sure I had a fence for Fence Friday somewhere and, well here it is. Another scene from Brisbane’s Roma Street Parklands looking towards the city, most of which is hidden well over yonder.

It’s amazing what they can do with old inner city railway yards...both Melbourne and Sydney at least also enjoying the benefit of these former facilities in the form of Parklands and public open space.

A feast for the eyes and camera....I seem to be using F a lot here, works fabulously. HFF and also a great weekend all.

Found at Rocky Run Fishery Area in south central Wisconsin. Columbia County, Wisconsin, USA.

Found on blade of grass. Eggs look to possibly be Podisus sp.

Single exposure, uncropped, handheld, in situ. Canon MT-24EX flash unit, Ian McConnachie diffuser.
