169/366 Damselfly

I spent a couple of hours in Little Bardfield by the river tracking down bugs…I found loads 😉 This is a damselfly, it looks like a winter damselfly but these are very rare over here so I am assuming it is, in fact, an immature different species…you’ll have gathered, I’m

167/366 The Old Weeping Willow

There were 2 quite magnificent weeping willow trees around Doctors Pond a few years ago. Then, this one was (possibly for good reason) cut right back to the trunk…it’s clearly a fighter though and it’s definitely making a come back.

166/366 Foxglove Towers

I know I shot the foxgloves just a week or so ago but the weather was closing in and I didn’t have much time so I thought I’d continue another theme of this week – bokeh.

165/366 Rye Meads Nature Reserve

The sun made a rare appearance this morning…but as the morning progressed more and more cloud appeared so, fearing the worst, I popped out at lunchtime and drove down to Rye Meads Nature Reserve just the other side of Roydon. It’s a funny place positioned as it is bang in

163/366 Chained Bokeh

You can always tell when it’s bad weather here – out comes the macro lens and I end up wandering around the house trying to find something of interest to shoot. So today, as the rain patters against the window we have some silver chain.

161/366 A tree by the field

Our regular walk through Rowney Woods included a quick walk around this field – just 2 weeks ago this was bright yellow, now the rape flowers have all been replaced by the pods that, I presume, are what the farmer will eventually harvest.

160/366 Obsession

Now, don’t get me wrong, there are a lot of people that are far more into Doctor Who than I am. I make no claims that I am its number one (or indeed number 10,000th) fan, but I do enjoy Doctor Who, be it new or old series. This is
