Are you sure you're not a candidate for the Vegan Party Jim? (God knows there are quite a lot of oddball outfits on our ballot paper). No canvassing allowed outside the polling station please [-X :-D

I missed it. :(

My neighbour told me today that he saw a kite chasing a sparrow, the sparrow dived into my berberis bush where they're nesting and the kite crashed into it and fell to the floor then shook itself and flew off.

Doubt that will happen again that bush bites, thorns an inch long all over it.

This beautiful tree caught my eye yesterday during my morning run :)

I'm told it's a copper beech... I have no idea to be honest, trees in my world are wooden things sometimes covered in leaves that look rather lovely most of the time...

associated Trivia....

If you still have your copy of the Strand Magazine of June 1892 you will find the 12th of the short stories recounting the Adventures of Sherlock Holmes written by Arthur Conan Doyle was titled "The Adventure of the Copper Beeches"

Disappointing, nowhere near as dramatic as the real thing and no amount of fiddling with The Gimp seems to save it.
Looked lovely at 04:03. Grey, dull miserable and raining now.
