That was just that bike LOL. But racing was much cheaper then. No fairings to replace and the entry prices were OK

I think these two beauties are Jackdaws. Started appearing a few days ago, now sit on the fence until I put birdseed in the feeder thing I’ve invented.
Not sure why it’s side on, sorry!!

I reckon you’re right. i think Jackdaws have that greyish band around their necks.

It’s made of horseshoes from a horse racing stables in Newmarket, so plenty of history to the shoes! I love it!

Er this isn’t something I’d usually photograph but this is a sad and rather strange thing I saw whilst out on our countryside walk (from home!) this morning. It’s a distinctly deceased fox but situated in the most bizarre position. It looked as if it was standing up in the grass and there wasn’t really any indication of what or who might have killed it. We did see one alive not far from that recently and it was the most beautiful creature. Shame for the dead one.

There's a fishing pool down the lane from our house, while I've been off work I've been watching a pair of swans build a nest up there. The eggs hatched in the last couple of days and today they've been taking a tour around the lake
