Went looking for boxing hares again today. Perhaps it was too cold?? Didn't find many hares, and only one pair running about. Found a pleasant pheasant instead.

Houghton House, Beds today, I went there for my week 9 image in the 52 weeker and thought it looked good in the required B&W.
One unanswered question from the day, why is there a single Rugby goalpost in the valley below the house?
Then I had a posing Pheasant on the exit road and a nice scenic view with a train cutting across the farms.003 06 03 23.jpg

Beautiful dogs, I think my favourite

Yes Adagio is a very fine dog. But he is massive. I did not show his tiny lady owner. When you see them in the distance it looks almost like a pony being led by a girl.

He is very obedient and well trained. Having to obey his lady owner means he is not very friendly to women. One is enough, he seems to think
 
Went to White Rock today and saw this freestanding clock:

I thought that it would make a good subject for a Pep Ventosa inspired "in-the-round" image. This is 8 images taken as I walked around the clock and blended in Photoshop:

Currently on a trip with our caravan. -11 last night, both our gas and our water froze overnight. I think we are better prepared tonight.

I don't often try black and white, but this one was almost there straight out of the camera, so I decided to try it....

I always open the patio door for a few seconds before bed, I like some fresh air in the house before I go up, and a quick look at the night sky.
Recently I have heard something small, scuffling in some dead grass and leaves in the corner by the door. I assumed I had a mouse.
But today, for the first time ever I saw a little Jenny Wren in the garden and it keeps going to the corner and delving around under the grass and leaves, and I now think it may be nesting there. Terrible light for taking pictures in the corner of the garden today, but I wasn't missing this chance.

The clouds clear to reveal the local hill.
