The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway - Genesis

 Back to reality and now rapidly cruising towards ONE MILLION HITS thanks to you ALL!

Not so much a Dawn Chorus as a Midnight Mass as a lone
SONG THRUSH
was belting it out, 'double four time' right across the Witching Hour (but plainly not this one) while at the Moth Traps things are starting to improve along with the more suitable overnight temperatures.
TREBLE LINES

with

SHEARS
both new arrivals for the year, another
PALE TUSSOCK
along with a couple of clusters of
COCKCHAFER
MAY BUG,
DOODLE BUG
call them what you will.
With all that attendant Bird Song we couldn't help but take the
CUCKOO WALK
On entering the Solar Panel Compoud it was immediately apparent that we had missed the
Event of the Previous Day
Shearer's at Work
(don't know if black wood is more or less valuable)
but leaving the EWEs as naked as the day they were born!

There is lambswool under my naked feet, the wool is soft and warm
gives off some kind of heat.
A salamander scurries into flame to be destroyed,
imaginary creatures are trapped in birth on celluloid.
The fleas cling to the golden fleece hoping they’ll find peace.
Each thought and gesture are caught in celluloid, there’s no hiding in my memory,
there’s no room to void

Carpet Crawlers - Genesis

All else of interest within were a decent number of
juvenile
STARLINGs
that had the good grace
to hang around for
a 'click' and a 'clip'!
On the way back there was time to clock this
GREY HERON
in the mist as the Gorila's were having a day off.
Passing a host of golden
BUTTERCUPs
we were then invited into the Fencing Centre to view their latest find.
(magic as knowing of my interests people report such things as this)
WRENs NEST
tightly packed between the fence panels awaiting sale.
With the area now cordend off and a notice placed,
looks like these 'nippers' will
Live to 'FLIGHT' Another Day!
Always worth a slight diversion into
Bournemouth International Airport where it was found both
LESSER BLACK-BACKED GULLs
and
HERRING GULLS
(at great distance)
are still incubating and where also the sharply contrasting
HORSE CHESTNUT CANDLEs
and one of the
BLACK PHEASANTs
(trying a disappearing act)
looked splendid in the late morning Sun - yes you remember Sun!
