Watching the race by judithg

Watching the race

I may post a few lycra-based shots at some point but I couldn't resist Mrs Duck. I wonder what they make of all the rowing - whether they can tell a good boat from one in a complete panic. It's been a glorious Bank Holiday weekend - the wind is picking up now and rain is forecast until Friday but a taste of sunshine is a very good thing.
Another 3 good things:
1. Hammocks - especially those swinging under trees with young new leaves dappling the sunlight and surrounded by cow parsley and twittering.
2. Cat and then dog that settled down in the hammock without wriggling too much.
3. Monty on starling watch making sure that they leave some food for the others.
He's a handsome fellow. Yes what a fab weather weekend - lots of sunshine though quite breezy.

He is very cute. I love the angle on him. It is cool here this weekend with possibility of rain later.

Nice duck against the green. Poppy's been enjoying the company of a large menagerie this weekend. Got chased into the duck pond by the geese.

Lovely depth - looks almost like the sea in the distance.

She is gazing into the blue yonder & like Judith I think she's looking out to sea!! Must be having a break from egg duty!
You have been in your hammock what bliss...we have been huddled round the Aga today out of the rain but didn't mind , quite cosy!

Love the colours and the ducks contemplation

I love the attentive look on her face. Maybe she's wondering why people go about in boats when they could be paddling in the water.

Great shot of Jemima with her long neck as she peers into the distance. I just love hammocks and so love to hear about them. Wish someone would post a photo!

She is definitely focused on something, isn't she? Love the crop and composition with the grasses in the foreground.
