If you do get there, going down Cut Lane brings you to the canal, going left is a nice section of the canal. Going straight on, you join up to the old railway line, and at that point walking possibilities are endless
they always say that hay fever is better when it rains......though that has not been my experience. I am worse when it rains...it brings pollen down from higher atmospheres......the only time I think I am going to be better is in November(sigh).
It doesn't help that I go and see ma most days and the grass is just at schnozzle level right now.

Nope -not him -he'd gone out into the garden!

Don't tell him I've posted this though

Re: Today in pictures

A selection from today's local wander - found some funghi under an oak tree (do you know what they are Dave?) and spotted one of the very elusive wild duck that populate the river it looks quite startled in the pic I managed to get before it flapped off into the undergrowth. Bright and breezy out -some great cloud formations around.

Nice mushy shots, Diane. I really like number one - is it corn? It reminds me of myself when it's time to get my roots done Hah hah!

Re: Today in pictures

A few from my mother's visit of a few days ago. The weather was perfect - not too hot. I drove both her and my aunt to a couple of parks in Oakville, bordering Lake Ontario: Gairlock Gardens (I really like these purple/black leaved plants, don't know what they are) and a bit further west up the coast, Tannery Park. If you look in the distance from that park you can see the skyline of downtown Toronto. I wished I had your new camera with its zoom lens, Margaret! Also, one of Miss Pris: she's discovered that bathroom sinks are fun places to play

Awww! I love that one to bits.
One of our Persian cats used to like lying in an empty bath. He got an awful shock one day when he leapt into a bath I had just run.....I had left the bathroom to get some fizzy bath bombs to lounge and luxuriate in.
He jumped out a lot quicker than he jumped in and left a very wet trail all over the landing.

Re: Today in pictures

One of mine is keen on sinks too -will try to catch her. She loves lying in the bidet too when it's hot -I think it must be the cool ceramic she likes!

Re: Today in pictures

Some new birds for me today

1-3. Wagtails (only seen the black and white ones before)
4-6. Buzzards, common around the midlands but never seen them around here before, I wish they`d fly a bit lower.
7. A squirrel making a run for it.

Re: Today in pictures

Well, today we went to Bury Market. It was 'throbbing' with shoppers.
I had intended to take a series of pics of the fresh produce stalls, but got jostled and shoved...and in the end gave up on my intentions.
Have just come back from a walk along the canal bank....very ordinary and pedestrian I know.
Anyway here are my offerings.
1) I wanted a spotted Burnet Moth. The must have spotted me and headed for the hills. I just got this Mirin bug.
2) Swan with strange refelctions in the water.
3) Grass head with same strange reflections.
4) I know i have done this pic before...this is just a bit different and I never tire of looking at this view.
5) the disappearing back end of a cyclist. If he is in the Tour de France he is lost!
6) rough stone wall
7) My shadow...don't I look tall? Just a trick of the light(sigh)
8) close up of the stone wall.
