Underneath the Arches - Flanagan and Allen

Wall to wall heavy rain this morning coupled with high winds was a recipe for getting some housework done. Occasionally, such days are set aside for having a chamfer-up around the bedroom and today sorting through what remain of my possessions. After that a shower, can of beer and an hour with REM, they never fail to bring a tear to my eyes. But first, a few photographs fortuitously saved from recent days.
Not only new for the Property
but also the first I have ever clapped eyes on.
 BLACK ARCHES*
SINGLE-DOTTED WAVE
THE FANFOOT*
The third EAR MOTH in as many days,
repeated here as considered a much better marked Insect.
ROSY MINOR*
 THE DUN-BAR (with parasite)
 THE DUN-BAR (without)
 DARK SWORD-GRASS
with deformed right wing.
 FLAME SHOULDER
 The ALPACAs
 are now well established in their new home
in the middle of the island.
 Don't know where these 3 Mutants came from?
juvenile STARLINGs
Stealing the Chick's Feed, unlike the Robin of previous days none of the c7 were caught for an 'In the Hand' shot.
 I'll strip the world that you must live in, of all its godforsaken greed.
I'll ply the tar out of your feathers, I'll pluck the thorns out of your feet.
you and me.
 And if I choose your sanctuary, I want to wash you with my hair.
I want to drink of sacred fountains and find the riches hidden there.
I'll eat the lotus and peyote. I want to hear the caged bird sing.
I want the secrets of the Temple.I want the finger with the ring.
  you and me, you will see,
that if you make me your religion, I'll give you all the room you need.
I'll be the drawing of your breath, I'll be the cup if you should bleed.
I'll be the sky above the Ganges
I'll be the vast and stormy sea.
I'll be the lights that guide you inward.
I'll be the visions you will see.
Visions you will see!
Hurn Post Office just up the road from here!
