Some fat bloke looking a right prat in a wool blanket cloak and with a borrowed staff, although he does have a really nice cloak pin made by Dave Budd.

Looks more like a typical secondary school history/geography teacher to me....

The two things are not incompatible. I used to be a teacher...

Love the cloak-pin ... the rest has the makings of a good wool-carder

 

[Goatboy]

That is a nice cloakpin Harvestman, almost tempted to get a cloak so I can get one too.

I had a cloak like that for archery but the cape gets in the way. Now I want to make a leather one without the cape.

In order to distract people from that photograph of me in a cloak, here's a common blue butterfly from today

 

[blacktimberwolf]

In a word..........beautiful.

 

[Harvestman]

Thanks . You see, no-one said that about me in my cloak.

Unsurprisingly.

But we're waiting for you to pupate Harvestman, to see what you turn into after shedding that... (I'll stop shall I?)

 

[Harvestman]

Don't hold your breath. People have been waiting for me to grow up for 44 years, and there's no sign of it happening anytime soon.




Yes, please stop.

We can't do anything about the age we have but we're not obliged to act it.

Some rather ominous sunflowers...

Ominous sunflowers

Not a sentence that you hear often, but you are right, they are.

Not untouched nature, but a photo from my weekend. Some serious amount of barbed wire!

Good grief! Was that to keep you out, or keep you in?

Here's a kestrel looking dramatic. I'm reminded of 'Five Miles Out' by Mike Oldfield
