Creatures from the Past

Back in February  of '15, we had some snow in Staunton. I'm sure some of my gentle readers will remember this. I have no way of knowing if this squirrel remembers anything or not, but if she/he does, then he remembers this.

Cambridge, 2014

The current news on the continued spread of covid-19 now makes it very clear that we will be masking and isolating for the foreseeable future. Combine this with the EU not letting americans in, and we have a recipe for not travel.

So today I thought I bring you a few more photos from 2014, when the world was more innocent...well at least less contagious.

Birds of Prey

Back in June we did a house sit in Warboys, Cambridgeshire. It was a tiny village that didn't even have a pub. Well, OK, it had a pub but not one I would go in.

What was easy to find was places that rescued birds of prey. I took my Nikon D800E and my

Nikon - AF-S NIKKOR 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6G ED VR Lens to attempt to photograph these birds while roosting (pretty good) and flying (pretty bad). My back hurt for days afterwards.

Below the fold is a selection of some of the photos from visits to two different places.
