I love this series, Jim! The black cat in your first photo brings back fond memories for me...I had a beautiful black cat with copper eyes for 14 years. She was precious. The robin is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThanks Linda, I too had a black cat. He was called Guinness. Black cats are lucky.
DeleteI miss robins and wrens - none this far north though.
ReplyDeleteThe bridge - nice. Lovely reflections, you were pretty close to the edge there!
Don't let those cats in, they'll never go home then :)
Oh and I don't think it's possible for any gull, anywhere, to be anything, but utterly photogenic.
PS: what is just not right about the pheasant photo? What am I missing? I meant to mention before......
ReplyDeleteI'll admit the pheasant and the robin appear to have too much colour but I can promise they are both un-enhanced. I myself who has a red/green deficiency in my eyesight can even see how the red appears to be too bright. Perhaps the light of the day has something to do with it. I often enhance pictures, but not in this case.
DeleteA lovely part of the country. Shows how mild it's been when the daisies are still out and looking so fresh.
ReplyDeleteCheers Bob, the port is always worth a visit whatever the weather.
