Well ... some time ago I mentioned that we have lots of windmills here
spot the windmill! Honest it is there, just well camouflaged by wintery trees.
I promise there will be more interesting photo's of those in the future.
Today I took the mad mutt and one of Dad's friends who is staying for a couple of days
down along a track through the vast expanse of fenland to the dyke
where, Ffin normally swims but it was a bit late in the day for taking back a very wet dog!
The rushes here look so biscuit pale now but as the spring greening starts the whole area will take on a different mantle and be teeming with life getting all chirpy and very matey.
No spectacular sunset today, here a sunset is a 360 degree affair and seems to last ages but late this afternoon the metal of the gate and the tall pylon attracted my attention ...
just one of the many that march across this area of the fens in a huge, view intrusive line that spoils the view with all the overhead lines strung out for miles as far as the eye can see. But on their own they are rather amazing structures and to think what they carry in the way of electricity to so homes and businesses is really quite awesome.
The hedgerows, what there are of them are sparse. Long stripped of their berries by the snow starved birds. That is all except for this rather avian or is it an alien ... rather peculiar creature.
Quite what it is I'm not sure but I will leave you to make up your own mind as to what it is.
