This is one of my own great favourites. There are so many varieties of moth in India, it is almost impossible to keep track - have never managed to properly identify this one, but love its delta wing!!!

Okay. Am now down to reruns here as well... it has been a dismal few months trying to get new things in the lens.

But have got some pretty good archives!











This is frontage of the Taj Hotel in Mumbai - it was still mostly under wraps being repaired after the bombing...

Well, did you contain your anticipation for seeing this shot of the Merganzer  oops -Goosander, promised you last week? Was it worth the build-up? That little fellow spotted me half a mile off and swam right against the flow to come check out the YAMarazzi!

As mentioned last week, the M106 was turning in circles, which made for some great angles. Could't do anything about the weather though...

Penguins are birds - but they don't fly, so am including this fellow in 'critters'!

This is a Northern Rock-hopper, one of the great characters at Edinburgh Zoo, where the penguins are permitted to 'parade' through the zoo every day. They do so only if they wish to, and sometimes they do and sometimes they don't.

In an enormous melee of mallards, I could see a white one. I didn't have my binocs with me. 

The Fudge's trusty very long zoom, however, revealed it to be a male Merganzer Goosander. 

The first and only one spotted this winter.

It was momentous so there will be another shot of him here next week. Does that excite you?

The HMS Penzance (M106) is a minehunter based on the Clyde.

This is the first in a series coming to you on this channel for the next few weeks. That day, she was turning in circles. Just because she could, I suppose. It was a cold, wintry, very grey day. Fifty shades and more...

SUNdays

And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him. 

And very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun. 

And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulchre? 

And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it was very great. 

And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment; and they were affrighted. 

And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him.
(St. Mark's Gospel, ch. 16)
