Another lousy day, weather wise, had a run over to Middlesbrough with Chris for some retail therapy, which turned into a waste of time & energy (bit like the weather).
​Pea soup fog over the moor road, pulled up in a suitably safe location, suited B&W

Still raining but not as heavy as yesterday for the early morning walk with Aussie.

Thistle needed more DOF, but the colour caught my eye.

Blackbird appears to have a beak full of sultanas

Breakfast for these three swans

Waterlogged, and its trunk split with the weight

Sums up the morning walk with Aussie!
More rain, suits B&W
​Think with the second one I could of got lower down!!

Miserable day, rain, rain & more rain.​

All up to date after our camping trip to the Isle of Skye

ICM - Intentional Camera Movement

Sunset, Sandsend

The sky, clouds & colour, just got better & better

Tram line, field of wheat

An early start for me, a return visit to try & photograph the foxes. Not the best of mornings, drizzle & low cloud on the distant cliffs.

Little visitor checked out the food I had put out for the foxes.

Wind conditions were ideal for birds to glide on the updraft.

Did I manage to photograph the foxes, no.  I packed up the tripod & camera gear, closed the rear car door, and a fox appeared. Err typical kit kat moment.

Chris wanted to visit the beach below the Storr, but I had spotted this bird hunting.  The access to the beach, below the hydro plant was very dangerous, so Chris & Aussie returned as I was busy.

Gillen, we had given up hope of seeing anything on our cliff top walk, sat down and had our picnic. After which I crawled to the cliff edge for a last look, and spotted these two right below us.  Not entirely convinced, nor confirmed but locals reckoned these were their two juvenile eagles.  Well pleased as the weather was very windy, with showers.
