25-09-2010 Cygnet

September 27th, 2010

Feeding the ducks on the walk to get a pub lunch to clear up the wedding-head. Not sure if these are still technically Cygnets if they are full sized?

13-07-2010 Algae Swirls

July 15th, 2010

There’s an awful lot of Algae in Bourne Hall pond at the moment. However, it seems to be a home to a pretty happy family of Moorhens, who are skitting around the pond. The pattern in the algae reminds me of some aerial photography I’ve seen.

January 5th, 2010

Today’s photo was taken by the road side at Bourne Hall pond in Ewell whilst I was on the way to the train. It’s freezing out there! Lots of snow around the country today. Hopefully headed for London tonight. I want a repeat of last February please, snow god. With any luck, tomorrow’s photo is [...]
