Hi Joe, glad you are good. Your dedication to linking certainly inspires me!
Thanks for the comment. I think of taking photos more like a notepad than ‘photography’. I use my camera for recall, identifying things and quite often instead of binoculars. I use a bridge camera with a 60x zoom. Always shoot auto. My framing is often pot luck especially zoomed in. I occasionally think I should get a DSLR (or some-such) and a big lens, but I’d never learn to use it and could not really justify the cost.

Short walk round Ardinning this morning, warm, thinks about being muggy if not for the breeze. Cuckoos calling, cuckoo & bluebells around. Green Veined Whites, Orange Tips and a Red Admiral.
handy if I ever change theme.
Read: Animal Dreams by Barbara Kingsolver ★★★★☆ 📚
Maybe too many important issues for the one book & some “too good to be true” characters but I was thoroughly engaged.
My wife said listen to the grasshopper, I can’t hear them, but heard this. so I opened my phone and the Merlin app: Common Grasshopper warbler. No sight of it.
Lots of orange tips butterflies. Plenty of bird song, D saw a weasel. Warm afternoon.
