He chose the metal robin over a real branch. Sat there for a while, singing his heart out like he owned the place — didn’t seem bothered that he had an audience either. It’s moments like this that make you stop and just listen. #robinredbreast #birdphotographyuk #gardenbirds #ukwildlife

A few pics from a colourful walk down the lines at Coxhoe, a once industrial railway track from Steetly Quarry, now part of the limestone links walk, I do enjoy walking my dog down here. #nature #greaterstitchwort #bluebells #redcampion #appleblossom #buttercup #wildflowers

Billy big balls and his girl's, it was lovely just standing there taking pics and talking away to them (yes I really am that sad 😂) they really do listen. Yesterday's hay-bale fields are in the background. #cattle #sunrise #codurham #northeastengland #ukpotd #potd #sunrisepics #rural #photography

A peony that my daughter Gemma pushed through our adjoining garden fence to give it a chance of flowering. Ted, one of her dogs, obliterated the other flowers on her side of the fence. He's not called Ted the terror for nothing 🤣 #flower #peony #closeup #photography #samsunggalaxys23ultra #potd

Always cracking photo opportunities Durham regatta week 👍🏼

Ben @only1invisibleman.bsky.social · 10/03/2025
Thanks Neil. Sorry for the late reply, first time back on here. They're for the rowers, so they know which one to go through, especially when the regatta is on and there is lots of boats on the river.
