Went out trying to get shots for by 35mm or 85mm lens challenge. Managed to get these few, only the shadow shot is the 35mm, I seem to be using the 85mm more.

Hi, a new visitor in my garden. He came for the first time, I think. First he ate on the ground :






Then he went up to the feeder :


















It was a hot afternoon, over 30 degrees Celsius. So, he was thirsty :

This is Cala n porter, on menorca. Phone pic of a restaurant we used to use when the kids were small.
It was the largest, most vibrant restaurant in town. Many outside tables, people always queuing. Now derelict, most of the town run down and closed. Very sad revisit.

Hi, the "new" squirrel came at 6.15 this morning. He was quite nervous, did a lot of checking, but stayed 15 minutes. He must have liked my food ... :

I couldn't work it out. It's definitely electronic so a tracker was my guess.

Could be a virtual fence, they use them here in the Wyre Forest.The cow gets a shock if they move to the limit of their allowed area. that way no real fences are needed. ( I'm not quite sure how I feel about this but they do seem to work )

Moved the feeder to try and stop the pigeaons eating it all, and this happens lol, I am trying to encourage smaller birds to the feeder without success, think there are just to many of these around, plus how can you edit 2 images shot from the same place, and make the colours different lol, must do better.

Hi, I have the pigeon problem, too.

Sparrows are rare here :






Green finches came more often, too :





The male squirrel came twice. It left when my dog barked, but came again after 15 minutes :









Playing around. SONY A7R2 - FE 1,8/55 :






100% crop, I find quite amazing ... :

A bit of hanky panky by the river this afternoon, they even changed positions.
The last one was trying to hold on and feeling around for any holding point......it fell off
