Wood Pigeon: 6th December 2021
The Wood Pigeon more often perches on hedgerow trees and in woodland. Here it’s perching on my fence (photo taken through my window).
On the Fence, another title achieved from the list provided for #2021picoftheweek by Maria Antonia.
“Jamie?” Gerald waved his hand in front of my face.
I slapped it away. “What?”
“Where were you? Lost in a gaze.”
“Looking at the…the tree,” I said, hesitantly.
“Oh, what have you seen? A woodpecker, yea? A squirrel?”
“Er…um…sure, that’s what I saw, yea just…just a bird.”
But it wasn’t a bird. It was…it was…I didn’t know what. An alien? A ghost? An elf? Yea, right, laughable, yea. But what was it?
Here’s how it works:
Every Wednesday I post a photo (this week it’s that one above.)

Here are some suggestions:
You have plenty of scope and only two criteria:
If you post a link in the comments section of this post I’ll be able to find it
If you include Crimson’s Creative Challenge as a heading, WP Search will find it (theory)
by ‘Searching’ in the WP Reader (fingers crossed)
Here’s wishing you inspirational explosions. And FUN
Weather descending into winter, chances are these are the last of this year’s fungi. Enjoy.

That’s all folks. Ah, sadness; now what will Nature give us for our Tuesday Treats?
22nd November, didn’t know this was to be the last walk of the month. Though winter approaches, weather caves in, so it’s not surprising. Hope you’re wearing waterproof footwear. We’re going to Acle to walk through a rain-sodden land to Tunstall Church.
At Acle the moon competes with the sun

November decay is grey… so I’m looking for anything with colour

The path threads between two drainage channels and is exceedingly muddy. And that mud is slippery!
22nd November 2021
We’re glad when we reach the pasture; not quite so muddy there

A wide-wide land… and no cattle today

Oh bliss, to walk on a proper road… yes it is a proper metalled road
22nd November 2021
So much easier to walk than all that slipping and sliding

And we arrive at Tunstall church

We’ll sit here and eat our lunch on the way back. But first we’ve to get to Halvergate. We’ll do that next week.
Hope you enjoyed this first part and didn’t find it too much the same as our walk in August even though it’s a repeated route
Some people might call it similar but that’s just cos it’s familiar.
What the jig are you Twittering about?
I haven’t a clue; a bit of a blow when I’m trying to act like a know it all, all up my own franchise, wanting the twerps to think me wise when I’m just a self-praising tweeter of other twerps’ thoughts.
Have you done? You know you’ve exceeded the character limit by some.
OMG, Jeez, no! That’s so sinking familiar.

“Hey, watchyer doing, moving that sign?” Brock was only a little chap, but he wasn’t afraid to stand up to the big-uns.
“What’s it to you. I’m moving it, yea,” the big-un said.
“But-but-but-but…”
“Yea?”
“How’s people to know where they’re going?”
“Who needs to know?”
“Peoples who’s using this path.”
“And where’s the path lead?”
“Well-well-well, down yonder.”
“And nowhere other?” asked the big-un, a rag taken out to polish his horns.
“Not as I know.”
“Then they don’t need a sign, do they. No, I’m taking this to where it’ll be better used.”
“Where’s that…if you don’t mind me asking?” asked little Brock.
“Down the back lane to hell.”

Not the last, but perhaps the penultimate. The fungi season doesn’t last forever. So lets enjoy while we can. I give you these…

Penultimate, perhaps. But I have a store of fungi photos, so I doubt even next week’s Tuesday Treats will see the last of them.
Hope you enjoyed
