Sunday Scenes

REPEAT MESSAGE
I may be a bit hit and miss with blogs while Joe is in hospital but I promise to visit you all as soon as I can. Fortunately I had a couple of scheduled posts for weekend viewing, after that it's anybody's guess! 

The travelling to and from hospital is very tiring, consequently when I get home all I want to do is collapse on a chair or bed. Hey, listen to me moaning, and I'm the fit one in the family.

Scenes today show the Heron, taken at the local wildlife park.

Plantsbrook Wildlife Park covers almost 27 acres of natural space. It is situated in a suburban housing area with industrial estates and parkland nearby. The reserve has a number of pools, surrounded by woodland, wetlands and a wildflower meadow and is a real oasis for wildlife, all accessible by well prepared paths and boardwalks. 
We are very fortunate to have this facility on our doorstep.

  1. Thinking of you and himself.

    Lovely photos-- I find the birds somehow hard to photograph--maybe it's their contrasting colours. Not sure....maybe it's the photographer? LOL

    Take care of you, ma'am...(I'll keep repeating it so you don't forget!)
