I delight, despair and write about a life lived around the world. Fueled by Yorkshire Gold tea.
I sadly have nothing in my rolls for #BirdOfTheDay today, but I finally joined @rspb.bsky.social this weekend so here’s to many more lovely outings and bird photos in my future.
#ColourfulCharacters Pheasant in Yorkshire standing on one leg. #BirdOfTheDay
#BirdOfTheDay admiring their reflections on the iced over canal on a sunny winter day. #SunnyDayBirds
This door has been through the wars but gosh darn it, he will never give up the his post #AdoorableThursday #doors
I’m going to call this a #BirdOfTheDay twofer. The white around this puffin’s eye forms a lovely circle for #CirclesAndSpheres plus he poses nicely against the sea backdrop for #StrikeAPose
This peacock was strutting around the Healey’s distillery in Cornwall like he owned the place. #BirdOfTheDay #UnusualPlaces
I have no idea where The Ugly Duckling story came from because cygnets are adorable #BirdOfTheDay #50ShadesOfGrey
Going with the alt of #ducklings for #BirdOfTheDay. I’ll never get tired of baby waterfowl
Stuck inside due to the Trump sponsored cyclospora outbreak from my recent Michigan trip BUT still got to enjoy an awesome eclipse (and I’m fine now)
#BirdOfTheDay #BranchWood This robin posed for a close up on a picnic table on the Isle of Mull. #birds
It should always be this easy. Seen on wall outside museum toilets in The Hague.
Best puffin photo I’ve ever taken and I only had my phone. Lunga island in Scotland. #bird
Approach self publishing with as much confidence as this child, although maybe with a snappier title. #writing
