Head in the clouds, wokie, loves #birds, believes everything has a soul (even the slugs I yeet over the fence).
My little sentinel robin, letting me get close with the phone camera in my garden in Winchester. #gardening @rspb.bsky.social @rspbengland.bsky.social #birds @birdsoftheworld.bsky.social

The partial solar eclipse this morning, taken from Winchester, using an old Nikon Coolpix and even older eclipse specs (1999). Note the sunspot that put out an X-flare yesterday. #moon #StormHour @bbcnews-uk-rss.bsky.social @apod.shinyakato.dev @scinews.bsky.social @itvnews.bsky.social

It's a little hazy out there, but I managed to catch the man in the moon, using a Nikon bridge camera. Taken 6th March, around 18:20. #astronomy @davidbflower.bsky.social @earthskyscience.bsky.social #astro #nightsky #StormHour

Cold and grey and catching up on work today. So here is a misty morning photo I took on Goolwa beach a year ago. #ThePhotoHour #LandscapePhotograpy @cloudappreciater.bsky.social

Jupiter and Galilean moons tonight, halo due to the veil of thin cloud cover. Taken with a Nikon bridge camera at maximum zoom, hand held, UK. #astrophotography #ThePhotohour

The weather is still grey, stormy, cold and dark and very, very Monday in the UK. Here is a photo I took of a golden afternoon on the river walk in Winchester, last month. #landscapephotography #ThePhotohour #weather

Today was too dismal for photography thanks to Storm Herminia, so here is another from my weekend wander into town on a kinder weekend. #landscapephotography

I did see this fellow yesterday, so maybe he counts towards the RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch. Affronted egret, Winchester college grounds. #birds #BigGardenBirdWatch #Winterwatch

Storm Herminia is just arriving, so here is a photo I took same time two weeks ago, on the walk into Winchester. #winterwatch #landscapephotography #swans #birds

The sun has a 22° halo ahead of storm Herminia this afternoon, spotted over Winchester (UK). #StormHour @cloudappreciater.bsky.social #weather #myphoto @bbcweather.bsky.social @itvweather.bsky.social

My favourite newlyweds doing a dance this morning, on the banks of the ladylake stream on the river Itchen. #Winchester #BigGardenBirdwatch #Flyday @bbcspringwatch.bsky.social #Countryfile

We almost made it through the day. For those still struggling, here is a very grumpy egret, chilly on the Winchester water meadows. #BlueMonday #mistyMonday #mood #myphoto @bbcspringwatch.bsky.social

Swans at their toilet on the river Itchen, taken a few days ago where the sun produced marmalade mist at sunrise. A little too early for the RSPB Garden Birdwatch. #naturelovers #stormhour #winter

Sheep by the river Itchen last weekend, when the weather was a little more inspiring. #landscape #myphoto @metoffice.bsky.social

Grey again in the UK today, so here is a little lemony light at the frosty dawn last weekend. Winchester. #weather #stormhour

Grey skies persisting in the UK right now, but here is a blue heart that presented itself, briefly this week in Micheldever woods. #stormhour @metoffice.bsky.social @bbcweather.bsky.social
