Dragon goes Wild

  • Ominous Clouds

    Ominous clouds were brewing, although they did pass by quite quickly. And we were left with an oddly silver glow to the clouds as the sunlight tried to break through. #30dayswild

  • Here comes the rain

    Not a cloudscape today, but the rain that invariably comes from a “nice picturesque cloud”. Thankfully we were sheltered under some trees at this point. #30dayswild

  • Rippled Clouds

    A couple more cloudscapes today, taken after the rain had passed through. #30dayswild

  • Cloudscapes

    Just a couple of cloudscapes today from earlier in the week – you wouldn’t think it was possible to have so many different cloudscapes! #30dayswild

  • Mobbed by Crows

    I hadn’t heard the Buzzards for a while, so I was surprised to hear them calling this afternoon. I don’t know why they seem keen to announce their presence, especially when the crows seem intent on mobbing them! The Buzzard got the idea and flew in the opposite direction, with the crows coming back to land in…

  • Birds of Prey once more

    Mum shouted from the garden that she’d seen a lot of birds of prey circling, but by the time I got my camera ready, they’d flown out of sight. I did however manage to get some blurred photos of one bird: It’s not really close enough to tell, but it could be a Peregrine Falcon although some…

  • Another Bird of Prey

    I always wonder how birds manage to fly so easily when there’s a strong breeze, and today was no exception! I spotted a bird of prey circling and took a few photos, but it was so far away and moving so quickly, you couldn’t identify the type of bird. An hour or two later, I spotted another…

  • Duck! ….No, Pigeons

    There must have been at least 30 pigeons sitting on the grass, and I thought it’d make a great action shot. The pigeons however, had other ideas, content to sit eating while I took photos of them. As I went to walk away, they suddenly all took off, flying over my head to a nearby roof, which…

  • Rumbling around

    Following the radar images on Metcheck.com, I could tell the rain was heading this way, but I hadn’t anticipated quite so much thunder to go with it! The rain was heading from the south, but this was the view to the north-east before the rain arrived. I still haven’t managed to get my timing right…

  • A pair of cloudscapes

    Following on from yesterday’s cloudscapes, I took these photos one straight after the other, but looking in slightly different directions for each. It’s interesting to see how different the colour of the sky looks, but also the way the clouds had spread out in the second photo. The vapour trail can clearly be seen in…
