Watchful!


Recently, with trying to access a footpath,
 I had to pass through  a field of cows,
I even interrupted the above cow,
 right in the middle of feeding!
How inconsiderate of me!


They were forever watchful,
 while I walked to the otherside of the field to access the other gate




One even became braver.
I promptly shut the gate behind me
& continued with my walk.

Watch Me!


This squirrel really stopped me in my tracks,
just goes to show its wise to carry a camera whenever possible.
I was strolling through one of the town's parks on my way to the Doctors.
Had no choice but to stop as this little creature was right in front of me.



He certainly wasn't that shy or timid & he/she stayed for awhile.
I think it was fascinated by the click of my camera,
 as the squirrel just stayed & stared,
before finally climbing up the trunk of a nearby tree.

On the subject of Squirrels,
 I revisited Swell Nature Reserve last Friday,
It was around about 6ish,
 my car was the only one in the car park,
 the birder feeders were empty,
rain was in the air.
Totally different to a previous trip there,
 but so many Squirrels!
Unfortunately,
 they didn't hang around for a photo shoot.
Lucky even to capture the one climbing the tree below.


Needless to say,
 this visit didn't last that long.
Left it too late in the day.
