I apologize for being two weeks since a visit, but things got crazy with a new puppy flown in from Iowa and my knee continues to give me heartache, make that knee pain. I hope that your health has improved since your last writing. These bodies of ours, just give up on parts a bit from time to time. The opening image is so pretty. Moles, I had no idea that they could see, thought they were all blind. Will try and keep up, but have not much to share until end of the coming week.

The barn owl in flight is great; the tufted duck with babies great -- and the (sadly) rare yellowhammer certainly posed beautifully for you. And the mole! How interesting to read more about this seldom seen dead-or-alive creature. I imagine the vultures waited to lunch until at least a few hours later to let the poor thing ripen a bit.
