across from St Cuthbert Church, Halsall, Lancashire. They probably wonder why sometimes the T.V. reception is spotty.

shot during a pitstop off the M6 Motorway near Creswell, Staffordshire. This lone goose is a bit unusual as according to the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, they are usually only seen up until March in the spring migration before heading to breeding grounds in Scandanavia. (several breeding flocks have been recorded in this part of England)

fallow field at Drummersdale House Farm, Scarisbrick, Lancashire. I was driving down a lane on what has been the family farm for over 200 years, when a whitish blur swept past the windscreen. I only had a short lens with me, so the resolution is poor on this surprising visitor.

Aughton Street, Ormskirk, Lancashire. I suppose this gull could be considered partially domesticated. One of a dozen or so that had congregated with some terns on the edge of the bi-weekly Farmers Market waiting for scraps. The weekly Thursday market has been held since 1286 A.D. when the grant was given by Edward the 1st. (and gulls have probably been there looking for a handout since then).

What I have tentatively identified as a juvenile Carrion Crow was resting on a horizontal monument in St Wilfrid Cemetery, Standish, Lancashire and in no great hurry to move so I could read the inscription.
