DeleteLovely images Roy, my favourite one is the scene of the river, the one between the buttercups and the large white butterfly.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lyn, yes thats a nice spot there along that bank. Good for some butterflies, especially Skipper varieties when they emerge.
DeleteLovely testimony of nature around you Roy!
ReplyDeleteWonderful you managed to 'catch' the Golfinch and the Dunnock, both are usually quite shy!
Hoping your weather is better than ours... mud slides in our village :(
Take good care!

DeleteThe weather has all gone wrong now though, rain, rain and more rain.
Hi Roy, this has been a lovely catch-up. A great pleasure to see all these lovely nature photos. I am also assuming that the old photo on your profile page is you and your English Rose. Delightful picture of you both.
ReplyDeleteHi Denise, thanks.
DeleteYes it is the English Rose. It was a couple of years ago.?? {:))
Wonderful photos from your walk! I enjoyed all the flowers and the critters.
