Weekend Reflections

This is Engine Bridge on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal near Wheelton. Don't worry about our equine friends on the bridge. They aren't actually loose on a road. There isn't a road there at all. The bridge just links some stables to some pasture land. The canal here sometimes attracts anglers trying to snag Bream, Chub, Roach, Rudd or Tench. If you look closely you can see a couple of intrepid ducks cutting up the reflections with their wake.

Camera Critters

Resting Redshank

Weekend Reflections.

This redshank was photographed at Southport (not far north of Liverpool). The bird is clearly taking a break from it all as he is at rest on one leg.

Whitby Harbour reflections

I took this shot in Whitby Harbour last week. Cormorants were diving for fish here. This gull, sitting on the boat, thinks that sounds too much like hard work.
