Photographs 2023

A robin in my bird bath this afternoon (I didn’t even realise there was any water in it. He was having a good splash!

Soft blue, green, pink in Devon yesterday. Worthy of a Monet painting.

Lots of lovely photos - yes Spring seems to have sprung!

Yesterday afternoon, after a wet and gloomy morning - a beautiful magnolia tree on Chelsea Embankment

Stunning views, I'd like to "work" from there grannyactivist, but not much work would get done!

We had a working holiday in Dartmouth early last month. The view from the window of our apartment was wonderful; the river to the front and the Britannia Naval College from the rear balcony.

I think that Spring has truly sprung! Two of these in the garden today, enjoying the warm weather like me.

Pretty crocus

I love the sound of your days past and present grannyactivist.

Beechnut there were lots of ducks and ducklings to watch, squirrels to see, and an abundance of birds, bees, butterflies and ladybirds. Every morning we left home 15 minutes early to allow time to enjoy the walk. Since then a community orchard has been planted, so children now stop to pick plums and mulberries on their way to and from school and a family of otters can sometimes be spotted. We really are very fortunate - our allotment is just by the river and in the summer I can happily while away a few hours listening to birdsong with the sounds of the river as a backdrop.

I was well enough to get dressed and take a short walk today, so I took some photo’s. There’s a lane opposite my front gate that leads to this beautiful river meadow; it was my children’s walk to school when they were little.

Whereabouts in Cornwall are you Joseann?

If I didn’t like school I’d be keen to go for the walk alone.

It's a hard life!

Ah- I thought it might be in that area. We occasionally holiday in Trevone, on the other side of the headland from Padstow.

Rock, across the estuary from Padstow, grannyactivist.

Love this photo that my daughter took of me in Dubai...

The gorgeous Pembrokeshire coastline 😁

Can't quite believe this is Cornwall today! 🌞

I call this one Pheasant in the Snow.

That’s a lovely photo of the slightly bigger summer ferry NannyJan53.

We travelled on that ferry to Teignmouth in 2019 grannyactivist

After our house fire I had to leave home for a week and stayed in a cottage in Shaldon in Devon. A little passenger ferry has plied its route across to Teignmouth since 1296, this is the current one.

Snap! biglouis . This little feline is divine but also domineering.

A beautiful ginger cat with a lousy personality.

This little robin was not in the least bit shy - he posed for the photo, allowing me to get really close.

Tulips bought for me yesterday by our lovely granddaughter and her equally lovely boyfriend
