LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

loving the dark day and the rain after the recent bright days - the earth seems to be soaking it up too!!

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

more bird magic on an empty moor as a buzzard flies up in front of me and reed buntings dance on the path ahead

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

i saw my first swallows of the year today

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

bathed in the wonder of the local moorland valley with these lush flowers

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

my annual vist to visit the heronry is amazing as ever - watching these huge birds sit and land effortlessly in the tree tops - this year was enhanced by a group of cormarents nesting in another tree close by sat on nests looking like penguins in the trees

LIFE IS SO BEAUTIFUL

spring is about to break out into colour meanwhile i adore the rich brown earthy colours and rusty hills of catkins

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

vibrant luminous moss season is here shinning against chocolate coloured wet bark and golden catkins
