Most evenings Pascha spends on the sofa apart from sitting on my lap when I watch a TV movie.
Meistens verbringt Pascha die Abende auf dem Sofa (und macht seinem Namen alle Ehre!), ausser wenn ich einen TV-Film anschaue, dann kommt er auf meinen Schoss/Beine.
Gorgeous evening light illuminates a northbound NS transfer, bound for Austell, GA's Whitaker Yard just a mile up the line.
A clamber out across the rockpools exposed at low-tide at Birling Gap rewarded us with these golden views across the chalk cliffs. Ravens croaked on the clifftops and a Spitfire gently rolled overhead. A perfect early-Autumn evening,

Finally, after many miles and hours just sitting and waiting, We took the long drive to Cape May. Stopped at two places and there they were, no waiting. Jumped out of the car and fired away. Thanks goes to the home owner for letting us in his yard.

Three pictures taken on the same evening around 10 mins apart. They give an almost 360 panorama although they weren't taken on exactly the same spot. This one was the last as I turned to go back home.

CONWY
Named after the river estuary it overlooks, Conwy is best known for its magnificent medieval castle and virtually intact town wall. A favourite with tourists and local communities alike the vibrant town centre is a melting pot of ancient and modern, so lovingly developed that the difference is virtually seamless.
With a coastline that has for many years been a favourite amongst the sailing fraternity it is no wonder that many of the town’s visitors are drawn to the lovely sheltered marina with it’s backdrop of natural Welsh beauty and excellent facilities. The Conwy Quays Marina boasts an impressive 500 secure pontoon berths, superb nearby boating and excellent cruising opportunities.
Ashore the fascinating walled town offers many delights. Picturesque narrow streets filled with architectural wonders including the 14th century Aberconwy House believed to be the oldest town house in Wales, Plas Mawr amongst finest remaining Elizabethan country houses and Britain’s smallest house. With lots of great places to shop, eat and drink it is easy to simply get lost in the town itself. But it would be a shame not to explore the surrounding countryside. The River Conwy itself for instance with its three famous bridges including Thomas Telford’s pioneering suspension bridge; there’s the beautiful Great Orme with its awesome panoramic views of Llandudno and the fascinating village of Portmerion that starred in 60s TV series The Prisoner.
I had not seen any birds of this species for years. We used to have them on the homestead every winter when I was a child. (Many moons ago 😛 )
They appeared one very foggy, rainy morning shortly before Christmas and stayed for much of the day; but have not returned since. They are a very beautifully colored bird. But as I recall ......... also very gregarious, tend to take over the feeders, and are not particularly tolerant of competing species.
There had been a rather large flock coming into the feeders at my sister-in-law's, for almost a month. But they have not been in for several day. She is only about five miles distance from me. I rather suspect that these are an irruptive population whose local feeding grounds may have been decimated by the drought and/or wildfires.
