Thank heavens for Chickadees!! They are there to greet us, no matter what! Such tough little guys, though they are always only 24 hours away from death if they can't get enough fat stored in their body to last overnight. In certain natural areas of the city, where they are very used to people, these little Black-capped Chickadees will happily fly down to a person's hand - in this case, a fellow birder's hand. The light and colour are rather strange and there is too much graininess thanks to the very poor light conditions, but there was still something I liked about this photo. Taken on 27 October 2015, when I went on a three-hour walk in Fish Creek Park, from Bebo Grove to Shannon Terrace and back, with birding friends.
"The Black-capped Chickadee is notable for its capacity to lower its body temperature during cold winter nights, its good spatial memory to relocate the caches where it stores food, and its boldness near humans (they can feed from the hand)." From Wikipedia.

Seven more chairs from Standen (National Trust).
The house currently has a 1970's theme/exhibition, which will be taken down at the end of October.
Standen always put on a wonderful Christmas display and it will be interesting to see what they do this year.
I had been searching for a Mother, and I have found her in the Catholic Church. Nay, the Church itself is the Mother of the faithful. In her motherly hands, severity is tempered by mildness; discipline conduces to a healthy freedom; inebriation and sobriety, feeling and dogma, emotion and reason are duly balanced; the Sacraments are the regular channels of grace and the Holy Spirit; the Bible is a part of a living tradition, the liturgical year is a tree planted by the streams of water, bearing flowers and yielding fruits for each season; asceticism becomes a source of gaiety and festivity; sanctity becomes the true romance of life; and mysticism is transformed into a living fountain of virtues. There is unity in diversity, and diversity in unity. True individuality is realized in catholicity. St. Thérèse has said it for me, “Fear makes me shrink, whereas under love’s sweet rule I not only advance—I fly.”

We stopped off at the National Trust gardens and café - morning drinks, stroll round the garden and grounds and then lunch. It did rain at times but not too much.

Some faces carry a rare kind of naivety.
Not childish — but brave enough to trust.
This is not about innocence.
It is about openness.
Dedicated to Lelya, goddess of love and gentle beginnings.

There doesn't seem to be a lot of it round at the moment, and for good reason. But it is a very necessary commodity for a healthy society. So I would encourage more people to give it a go - after some critical thought.
The girl in the photo seems to have a good deal too much of it, on the other hand, and might find herself swept away by some unscrupulous lascivious handsome man intent on a night of wild passion with no thought for the following day.
If she's very lucky.

There is a National Trust trail through the bluebell wood at Greys Court, on of a series of walks around the estate.
Today we went to Polesden Lacey and I found a few more lone chairs to add to my National Trust chair project.

Basildon Park is a country house situated 2 miles (3 kilometres) south of Goring-on-Thames and Streatley in Berkshire, between the villages of Upper Basildon and Lower Basildon. It is owned by the National Trust and is a Grade I listed building. The house was built between 1776 and 1783 for Sir Francis Sykes and designed by John Carr in the Palladian style at a time when Palladianism was giving way to the newly fashionable neoclassicism. Thus, the interiors are in a neoclassical "Adamesque" style.
Never fully completed, the house passed through a succession of owners. In 1910 it was standing empty and in 1914, it was requisitioned by the British Government as an army convalescent hospital. It was again sold in 1928 and quickly sold again. In 1929, following a failed attempt to dismantle and rebuild the house in the US, it was stripped of many of its fixtures and fittings and all but abandoned.
During World War II, the house was again requisitioned and served as a barracks, a training ground for tanks, and finally a prisoner of war camp—all activities unsuited to the preservation of an already semi-derelict building. In 1952, a time when hundreds of British country houses were being demolished, it was said of Basildon Park "to say it was derelict, is hardly good enough, no window was left intact and most were repaired with cardboard or plywood."[1]
Today, Basildon Park is as notable for its mid-twentieth-century renaissance and restoration, by Lord and Lady Iliffe, as it is for its architecture. In 1978, the Iliffes gave the house, together with its park and a large endowment for its upkeep, to the National Trust in the hope that "The National Trust will protect it and its park for future generations to enjoy.

I like to think that if you can find yourself so completely naked and exposed to another being yet feel completely safe, accepted, and loved as you are then you've found something priceless. When it comes to that bond, its as close to perfect as can be. There is an absolute trust; unshakeable and powerful yet so pure and beautiful. This is your safe place; a place you can truly be yourself where your souls speak and no words are needed.
