Cracking Day


Thursday was a lovely early winter’s day with plenty of sunshine even if it was a little on the cold side.

We had a trip to our local RSPB reserve at Fairburn Ings. The frosty weather had lingered into the afternoon in the sheltered spots where the sun hadn't managed to penetrate.
There’s still plenty of evidence of all the recent rainfall around especially in the fields. This is a picture of a farmer’s field near Fairburn and not a picture of an Ing although it could easily be mistaken for one.
The area around the RSPB reserve is low lying and is prone to flooding and the road leading to and from the reserve was still partially flooded.
On the way back home from the reserve the sunset was spectacular.
Whilst we were at the reserve we also had a little time to photograph some birds.
