For the past 3 years we’ve had a pair of Robins visit our garden and The Happy Eater tree, but this year have hardly seen them. Today though Phil spotted this little robin jumping from the car window ledge onto the mirror back and forth, we think he thought there was another robin in it! He seems to be alone so am not sure if this is one of the pair and the spouse has died or if this one is a different one all together.

this next one’s a bit out of focus but you can see his reflections in the mirror and window,

and my shot for today~

Quality not quantity

I started my ‘picture a day for 365 days’ 114 days ago, not realising at the time how my working life would change so drastically. I’m working 6 days a week now, and a fair amount of home time is taken up with processing the work, or doing related study etc etc. Bit by bit my 365 has degenerated into bulk uploads and camera phone shots late at night in desperation to keep it going, but that’s not the way I wanted to do the 365 and I’m not enjoying it, so have decided to call a halt. Of course I’ll still take pictures when opportunity arises, but quality, not quantity feels more important and relevant right now.

Some from last week.
