Pushing the phone cam's zoom to it's limit to catch the cute sight of the baby swan popping up to greet the world.
It's been years since we had cygnets so close to home.

Spring is finally showing in the garden, the contrast of light and shadow helps highlight the magic of the season

Last night's flock of badgers 
Amazing to see an entire herd like this, seen the kids before (2 of them) and the kids with mum but suddenly they've found a third or is it 4 young ones

Don't you just love Victorian taxidermy
Such realism is hard to replicate, clearly these guys knew their stuff
(Pun intended 
)

Stupid cat saw a butterfly on a flower and was then fascinated by that flower, wondering why it didn't fly away like the other one did...

The ram’s horn squid (Spirula spirula) apparently one of the most elusive cephalopods. This tiny squid is only three inches long, lives in deep regions of the ocean, but occasionally the tiny delicate shells wash up.

Final shot of my pet leaf, they are great fun for arty shots if you can find one
I've been using smoothed out or scrunched up easter egg wrapping foil for the backgrounds

I love finding a skeleton leaf to play with. So photogenic that I could spend hours taking variations on a theme.
Went on a successful squirrel hunt yesterday
Think the mild winter has helped them as I saw 8 within the hour suggesting numbers are up.
Might have been the same one following me around of course, running ahead, shimmying up a tree then waving. Oh how he must have laughed about it telling his mates back at the squirrel pub last night.
Sorry Alt txt not working
This windmill is close to the village of St Monan named after the saint who was killed by Danes in about 875. St Adrian was killed on the Isle of May in the same raid along with 6,000 locals
The windmill is a modern build based an earlier mill standing since the 1700's.
The windmill pumped sea water into rock cut reservoirs for salt production for hundreds of years

Gone to #loch ken to have the #camperVan properly tested
#Pizza cooked in the new oven on top of the old gas BBQ
Tidied that away and now for a spot of #Xbox on the park WiFi before sleep
My eldest was very impressed with the pizza
Got the trip off to a great start motivationally
