Wednesday 30th 55-60?F, slightly misty with a heavy overcast expected to continue all day. An hour and 40 minutes to take 355 pictures. The mist added perspective and a dullness to the scene in equal measure.
Countless Chaffinches, Wood pigeons, Starlings and gulls were gathered. Each in their own vast flocks. Fidgety and nervous at my approach.
I arrived at the lake and snapped away at the usual, far too distant quarry. The Grebe family dozed as ducks busied themselves being ducks.
Then the steep climb up to the plateau. Where a solitary farmhouse enjoys its unique isolation and unhindered views of tumbling clouds. Yet is passed by a rare, public track provided the dogs will let you pass unhindered. Back down the familiar, undulating lane. Taking all too similar landscapes under arching oak trees.
