...and again, in the shortage of birdies, the use of winged critters of another ilk is made! No idea what it was, but it appeared in my kitchen one day. I set out free beyond the window.

Molly the moocher! A dog met whilst on holiday up North. She's a rescue and is thought to be a Rottweiler Labrador cross. Pretty close, I'd say!

...well, bees have wings too!

This was taken the same day as the lark from last week, and the reason for this one being blurry is similar... it just would not stay still and the lens was trying to follow it. This was the best out of about a dozen shots.

This one is well-blurry... but it was taken at great speed and with a bit a juggle of equipment because we each surprised each other!!! It is a Skylark and is on the "at risk" red-badge status with the RSPB. This one didn't hang around for any other shots.
