Extreme Lone Bird by judithg

Extreme Lone Bird

It's been a day of staring at very slow moving bars on computer screens, wondering just how long some programs can take to load, with a brief intermission to meet my friend Karin in Waterbeach for a walk along the river. She has a six month old labrador called Oscar - very cute and already better behaved than Monty - I so chose the wrong breed.
Huge thanks for the fantastic response to yesterday's photo. I walk around the town so much that I don't often stop in my tracks in awe but yesterday was one of those times.
Starting an elb tag? Not a bad idea.

Nice silhouette - Reminds me of the movie "The Birds" - that movie still scares and it was years ago that I saw it!

Great silhouette & a bird in the bush is a wondrous balancing act ! I don' t envy you messing with computers all day, it would drive me mad !! Tell your dog walking friend Rebecca I received her book The Deep End today & I think she is a genius !! I have come to understand that the main components in a small children's book are the illustrations so I have no chance writing one !

@happypat Oh I will!! She's very clever - everybody thinks they'd love to draw a children's book but they are so hard! She has had a lot of art training - it doesn't just happen - & she comes from Bolton so she's had a good Northern education! She has three books coming out this year - I'm off to buy the new one for my friend's little one tomorrow.

A very strong looking bird and even more so against the threadbare branches.

@fueast I could change my bird tag as he is Billy No Mates!
August 26th, 2012  
@judithg Its OK to mix and match. I have sheep and swans sharing ELS!
August 26th, 2012  
@fueast And that bird may be on a tree that's on a boulder...
August 26th, 2012  
@judithg with a sheep looking on.. I really need to get out more.
August 26th, 2012  
@fueast I need to go somewhere new - I'm boring myself to death with my photos...
August 26th, 2012  
@judithg well youve got a car and a dog so you could go anywhere!
August 26th, 2012  
@fueast I know - was planning seaside but Nigel's mum is I'll so it looks like it will be sunny Stafford....
August 26th, 2012  
@fueast 'ill'
August 26th, 2012  
@judithg Sorry to hear that. Sure she'll be pleased to see you.
August 26th, 2012  
@fueast Pretty sure she won't know the difference but she's having a really rough time & his dad will appreciate it. Monty will enjoy Cannock Chase - he can have a good run after deer over there!
