Today in pictures

[gpick24]

Just a few from today, was nice to see the Kingys again (no pics, too fast for me today), haven`t seen any for weeks but was very suprised to see one on the canal.

1. Thought this was one of the Buzzards I`ve seen a few times, but under closer inspection I don`t think it is. Anyone know what it is?
2. Tree rat, making a hell of a racket.
3. Looking down towards the fishing hole at Rishton.
4. Here`s the Buzzard.
5. I think I`ve been spotted.
6. Let me at `em.

You should talk to your shrink about this ... especially your apparent fascination with the three point hitch.

If it was circling in the air I would put it as a Sparrowhawk gpick24,

Direct flight could be a Goshawk,not sure.

A trip to the Leyland Museum today was my only chance to exercise my shutter finger..

1. Big red Lorry.
2. Little red car.
3. That makes the big one go.
4. Remember them, hundreds around Lancashire at one time.
5. Another red car,
6. Blue car.
7. I thought I had better change the subject.
8. As above.
They had a charity stall outside the museum so I thought a quid a photo in their box would help
