Sun at 9pm

The bird is taking a bath somewhere else!
My pigeon sits in some other place.
I could see him from the road!
And from where he sat
He looked and looked
And sat and sat and sat……….
(He did n’t even wave!)
(I know he can wave! He does so regularly in our garden. Here’s one from the other day. )
Diary. Sunday:
It’s OK! I missed the sun rise today, but I still walked along the road a bit later to catch the breeze and the ‘full-on’ sun, in a cloudless sky over the fields, but I got distracted by something on the other side of the road in a place which looks over the view I am in. When I zoomed in on the camera it looked like the pigeon from my garden sitting there as large as life and…. he had taken our (his) bird bath with him! And he wasn’t going to take a blind bit of notice of me……..
Or from where I stood the sun behind me was so bright I guess he couldn’t see me! GM
Twin Peaks 2
Diary. Same clouds as ‘Twin Peaks 1’They may have moved along a bit. The light has changed a bit too. Its now about about half an hour later.GM
Twin Peaks
Diary 8.30 pm After a deluge of rain that caught me earlier the skies turned blue late afternoon. Now the clouds are banking up. These passed by the landing window just now.GM
Three birds caught in setting sun (if you look close)
Diary 9.00 pm
Evening: Its thick cloud and this is the only sliver of light in the sky, down the street. If you press the picture you might find three birds (two fly on the orange, one sits on a chimney). One shot no hanging about.
And just as I thought the cloud was too thick to see the moon just yet….at 9.24 pm I just noticed it high up but right outside the living room window (at the back of the house). Hi moon! Nice one! Night night!
Q: What moved faster than light today?
A: ME!……
While digging earth today! Something wriggled……
I ran, and ‘Cool Jo’ took the photo.
(Surprised slow worms move fast, but not as fast as me!)

Moon walk
Dear lovely Em,
Long time no see. Bit of a lonely road to the field where the rabbits are, where the sunset goes down.But after what seems like weeks of no moon in the sky, he arrived last evening!…. Its either been too cloudy or too something at the time the moon might have been there to make a brief appearance….. Either way he was missed even if he could be seen! But last night (as a result of the moon being clear and bright up there above where the kite is caught up in the tree by the road I thought I would take a walk, over to where the sky was getting pinker. And…. As I walked, the moon kept up with me, side on, all the way there. And he stopped when I stopped! And the biggest miracle of all he turned round and walked with me all the way back home, an hour and a half later. One of the times When he stood still I took this photo (raw, so the sky is black though it wasn’t)so here is the close up for you. The best I could do! I reckon he looked better through the trees a bit farther away actually ( on auto) and the sky deep blue. Less rabbits in the field too and the ones that were there ran away! So you got my moon walk! Love Rosie (love to all)
