Three Hides

 I’m even more behind going through the images on the computer than I usually am but I don’t suppose it matters very much, for me it’s about the images rather than when I got them. Anyway, here are some images from Clara Vale, Thornley Woods and Far Pastures.

Mistle Thrush.


Jay.







Nuthatch.


Heron with a Newt.


Trying to catch something.

And with a fish.
