At last, out of hibernation

At long last Spring is on its way. I have been taking the odd shot through the winter, but a combination of my Handyman business getting out of hand.....pardon the pun, and my version of 'SADS', has severely limited my free time in front of the computer.
OK, here'e a selection of some of the shots I have taken this year

Sunset at the back of Red Lane

One of our resident Blackbirds

 Its a Robin....

Its amazing how tame the Blackbirds are

 A Redwing....we have been inundated with flocks of these all winter

Ah....the lessor spotted bird seed thief......RAT

Couple of sunsets from the back window

A very fat Sparrow

Mr Gruff..........not so little Max

A posing Granddaughter Ella

Mr fierce again

Another Redwing

First signs of Spring.........at last

Its almost time to get the caravan out again..........stuff the decorating

Brighton pit-stop

Blew into and out of Brighton today to fetch my son from music school for Christmas.
Was back home in Kenilworth by 2.30pm. Just had time, after I did his washing up, to take a few pics

This is where my son lives....100yds from the seafront!!!!!!!

This has just gone up....I presume for Christmas???

PHOTOFRIDAY.COM COMPETITION ENTRY

This weeks theme is 'Graceful'.........what do you think

Anyway some different woods today. Light was very poor, and the expected shots of the resident Buzzards didn't materialise........So before they die off...more mushrooms

What about this for tree roots. Entwined in an ancient wall.

Someone has cut out a seat in this root

Round Robin Challenge

Photo Sunday competition entry

This is an entry to the latest Photo Sunday competition.

The theme is 'DOG'

This is Max....a 5 month old Miniature Schnauzer

At last a sunny day

For those of you that are sick of Fungi pics.....I have some more. The good news is, that this will be the last lot. Had a sunny afternoon wandering around Hay wood again. Will be very busy again this week until Wednesday afternoon. so this set will be the last for a few days.

These 2 were taken by the missus with her 4.0mp compact Canon....not bad

These last 2 were the same subject. Used the flash on the second shot, which seems to have had a reverse effect

More Mushrooms

Have not been able to get out this week as have picked up a big decorating job that should tide me over for a bit. I will post the rest of the pics we took in Hay Wood on Tuesday afternoon

Whoops here comes the missus.....quick hide Max

This one has a puddle of water sitting on the top
