Welcome to my new Blog



Welcome to my Blog.
My Blog is mostly about my hobbies, ie Model boats, Cross Stitch, Gardening, Days out and about, Lego Technics and Photography you might recognize the hat rather than me. My models and other hobbies can be found in the Tabs at the top below the header picture.
There will also be entries of days out with my camera, weather permitting of course.

Reddish Vale, 17.11.2017.

Had a nice morning down at Reddish Vale today, met another chap with his camera, and after throwing some seed into the lake managed to get the beautiful Tufted ducks in to the side for some snaps, they are usually a bit shy but with not many people about today perhaps there wasn't much food about.
Anyway here are today's efforts.
Male Tufted Duck.

Here is the Female, looking a bit shy hey

Lots of Squirrels about today




These two taken though the window of the information centre whilst having a cuppa to warm up after a brisk walk round the lakes.
All sorts come to this bird table during the day.



Round the back of the centre on the stone trough feeding station there is always plenty of activity,

A Great Tit


The Coal Tit saying to the Nuthatch, 'Save some for me'

Our National Bird, and a very good choice as well!.
Whilst in the info centre saw that Santa is coming soon!.

The other side of the big lake high up in a tree was this Heron, which having the Autumn leaves in the background, I thought made nice picture.

This one more in the usual position!.

Snapped this Female Goosander in the week as well.


Finished up the day meeting friends at The Windmill Carvery in Denton, a nice meal as usual and a nice chat, so a good day all round!.

Always keep your words soft and sweet, Just in case you have to eat them!.

Don't kick a man when he's down, unless your absolutely certain he won't get up.

All things are possible, except Sking though a revolving door.
