Absolutely. I don’t get over very often as it’s a fair drive for me, but it’s such a great reserve. I didn’t get particularly good pics last time but always great to see these birds.

If anybody is in the Burnley area on Sunday, please come along to hear @burnleychoir.bsky.social perform this magnificent work. We are a charity and rely on ticket sales to keep us going. If anybody can share this poster too, that would be greatly appreciated. #music #choir #elgar

This evening’s listen. Charles Dickens readings by Prunella Scales and Samuel West. A recording from 1998. It’s as good as you would expect. Both such excellent readers.

They’re back! First proper chiffchaff call of the year for me. At Gawthorpe Hall. #birds

Best ‘unexpected bonus in a second hand book’ I’ve ever had, I think. These were in an old book of Keats poetry which I bought this morning. I wish I had more information.

Dipper (Cinclus Cinclus) at Yarrow Valley Country Park today. I love these little birds. The white bib, the white eyelids, their bobbing dance. #birds

The mosaics in the Burnley Market Hall stairwell. Like old friends, they’ve always made me smile. I hope they’ll always be there.

One of my favourite photos I’ve ever taken. Taken two years ago today, on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal. A mute swan and it’s reflection. #birds

The Passmore Centre, Borough Road, London. Gorgeous facade. Really grabbed my attention and I had to try and snap a couple of shots of it with my phone. #architecture
