Golden pint yesterday at the pub

Photographically, quite dull...but kinda satisfying.

Today was brought to you by swallows (oodles of them), brown butterflies, red admiral butterflies, hummingbird hawk moths, crickets and grasshoppers...and a load of penny farthing riders.

This is the hoglet in question. Currently looking pretty relaxed in it's recovery box. Been sleeping for several hours. We'll be putting the box out in the garden once the sun goes down.

Feel a little bit bad - found this chrysalis in a pot I'm emptying. Put it down to take a picture for identification purposes and immediately a jackdaw came and grabbed it. Oh well, I guess a baby jackdaw had a nice lunch

This, in the York Tap, on York station. Around the other side of the circular bar was a full complement of Timmy Taylor beers. Allowed myself a smirk

So, apparently, this is probably the remains of a Woodcock. Found in central Bristol - almost certainly a peregrine falcon meal. We think maybe it was Mrs PF's birthday and she fancied a change from feral pigeon. We did hear her mithering a lot before we found this. <gruesome warning>

Walk around the harbour to try a couple of 127 cameras. Brilliant to seen how well Bristol uses the harbour side. Since we were here, was rude not to come for a pint or two

#skying Sorry. Realise I missed intros etc. I'm a general nerd, part based in Eastbourne, part in Bristol. Part of the reason we keep this flat is the huge amount of sky you can see - even from the centre of the city

So, this is what happens when you don't take desire lines into consideration when doing your landscape architecture. Yes, there's a pedestrian crossing but the access to flats are where people come from. This is why you're trying to stop them with fences. It won't work.

I don't think there's anything more satisfying than picking a few kilos of tomatoes from the garden, adding onion, garlic, red pepper and fennel and then setting off the ol' Instant Pot to roast down to a purée that will freeze for use in the winter. We missed this last year
