| View of Blencathra from the A66 this morning as I made my way over to Keswick |
Late yesterday afternoon we had a few flurries of snow but not enough to cover roads or pavements thankfully. So this morning I decided on my first outing of 2013 with the camera, and visit my mate Les.
 |
| The first thing I found on the lake was these three Swans upending , one adult two juvenile. Then |
|
 |
| A small flock of Tufted Duck flew in, closely followed by these 3 |
 |
| Goldeneye a male displaying to 2 female, |
|
 |
| He was really strutting his stuff. |
 |
| Go on sun , chest out head back wet bum who could resist, juvenile Swan in background, and then, |
 |
| one of the Swans decided to spoil his fun and away they went. |
 |
| Skiddaw Little Man behind Keswick. |
 |
| Black-headed Gulls in feeding frenzy. |
 |
| Another view of Blencathra, and St, Johns church Keswick in the foreground. |
 |
| Quite a smart fella even if he is a Heinz 57 |
 |
| Lastly, looking at Derwent Isle into the sun from the Isthmus |
Must be truly amazing to live where is such beauty. Great shots
