RSPB Sandy

As ever, I don't really have the proper photographic kit to take decent bird photographs (See my RSPB Fowlmere post for further comments about the importance of size), but it was still a very fine afternoon and I managed to find a variety of interesting and rather lovely things to photograph. I may have even seen a raven, or I may have deluded myself, but either way I didn't manage to get a decent picture.

I definitely saw buzzards and red kites, plus magpies and pigeons and a squirrel, but yet again, no photos were taken, or those that were, were not up to it. Oh well...

Ten Years Old - Again!

So, last year saw the tenth anniversary of this blog. You can relive the celebrations by skipping back through my 2024 posts or by clicking here.

Today is another tenth birthday, this time of my novel Witchlight and the beginning of the urban fantasy Witchlight series. To celebrate there is (photographic) cake and a link to images that inspired and were inspired by Witchlight. Enjoy!

Cambridge University Botanic Garden

A few of the many photographs I took during my spring visit at the end of April. If you want to know more about the Botanic Garden, go to https://www.botanic.cam.ac.uk/ or better still, go visit the real thing.
