I went to Stratford this afternoon to get a couple of competition images printed, only to discover that Photo Zone’s big printer is broken. It could have been worse – I might have been the person driving to Cornwall to … Continued

Fat Furry Owl

What an afternoon! I left home in bright sunshine, but arrived at the owl field under a ferocious sky and scudding rain. After I’d lurked by a copse for half an hour, the cloud blew over and the field was … Continued

Worth the wait

After (virtuously, if rather belatedly) doing my tax return this morning, I zoomed off to the Cotswolds, arriving at the owl field at 1.20pm to find Hillyblips already set up and ready to shoot. We then stood… and stood… and … Continued

The weather having turned out to be better than forecast, I found myself leaving my tax return for yet another day, and heading up to the owl field. When I arrived it was very pleasant, and the light was good. … Continued

Baleful

I’ve spent the day cycling through the stages of grief. Every now and then I get stuck on anger, and the visceral hatred I feel for the liars, plotters, cheaters, and employees/fellow-travellers/useful idiots of V. Putin who have brought us … Continued

Love starlings

by JDO | posted in: Birds, Warwickshire | 0

Today was my day for being deprived of a morning, my dignity, and much of the Offspring’s potential inheritance, at the dental practice in Coventry. On the plus side, I got gold stars for the state of my canine tooth, … Continued

Beauty light

When I began to think about what to do for my 2000th blip, it didn’t take me long to come up with the idea of a starling murmuration. Deciding on a site took longer, because murmurations are surprisingly unreliable: you’d … Continued

Hangin’

by JDO | posted in: Birds, Warwickshire | 0

I wish to put on record the fact that I spent this morning baking a cake – actual cooking, with ingredients, and a recipe. A blueberry orange polenta cake, if you’re wondering. I’ve never made a polenta cake before, so … Continued
