We went for an afternoon in Lincoln and on the way we noticed that the Red Arrows were up in the air doing some training over RAF Scampton. I drove over to where they were going to land - a geeky bloke knowledge of which way the wind was blowing - and got some photos as they flew overhead to land. If you look at this image at full size then the pilot can be seen quite clearly.
The Red-winged Blackbird (Agelaius phoeniceus) is a passerine bird of the family Icteridae found in most of North and much of Central America. It breeds from Alaska and Newfoundland south to Florida, the Gulf of Mexico, Mexico, and Guatemala, with isolated populations in western El Salvador, northwestern Honduras, and northwestern Costa Rica. It may winter as far north as Pennsylvania and British Columbia, but northern populations are generally migratory, moving south to Mexico and the southern United States. Claims have been made that it is the most abundant and best studied bird in North America. The Red-winged Blackbird is sexually dimorphic; the male is all black with a red shoulder and yellow wing bar, while the female is a nondescript dark brown. Seeds and insects make up the bulk of the Red-winged Blackbird's diet.

Red rocks is an area of rocks on the shore at Hoylake on the Wirral coastline, northwest of England. I was astonished to find a view of the milky way galaxy here given the light pollution in this part of the country but the conditions seem to have been perfect for it on this particularly night.

I finally got around to editing some more of the shots that I was able to get of this fox that I came across near Viscount Saskatchewan...
He allowed me to get quite close to the den (just out of the picture to the left of the fox)... he posed quite nicely for a few minutes before disappearing into the den... in this particular shot he is expressing his boredom with me as he take a big yawn before lying down again...

Red squirrel seen on today's trip to the Small Breeds farm Park and Owl Centre at Knigton, herefordshire. This was my belated birthday treat and the squirrels were very high on my list of things to see. They did not disappoint. One even tried to nibble me.
It was such a special experience to spend an hour with these red fox kits last weekend. There was quite a bit of heat haze/distortion, but I came away with a few decently-sharp photos despite that. The fox kits stayed in their dens until the sun came out! I can't say that I blame them, I usually stay inside if the weather's bad too!
