Apologies for so many reposts which I usually try to avoid at one time. Think I am the guy on the left, so much of interest this morning!

A lovely Spring afternoon spent at Nunnington Hall, NT, N.Yks. The Spring bulb display alongside the River Rye were a delight to see.

Quite a few people have liked my post of Flynn over the last few weeks, so I thought I would post one of his half-brother, Jake. They were born an exact week apart; were an amazing characterful but very different pair all their lives; and sadly died within 9 months of each other.
Meet Jake. 😍

Lovely trees sparrows: art work by Emma Price.
Always been a gang here, a feature much enjoyed but sadly not seen any for a while. I noticed in Summer numbers were significantly down; wondering about disease or wet spring impacting on broods?

Picture of the ornate gatehouse ruins at Kirkham Abbey yesterday on travels about the Wolds. The nearby River Derwent was very high so will likely flood with heavy rain forecast this weekend. Normally a very tranquil, peaceful place.

A lovely bonus today was a photography exhibition in Sledmere House courtyard. A natural history theme largely; particularly special was a huge picture of a starling, well illustrating its vivid colours.
Sledmere has a few well recognised landmarks.

Away day today! Venturing to the edge of the Yorkshire Wolds. Visiting Sledmere featured in one of the many paintings of the area by David Hockney. What's not to like? ☕️🍰
