I went to Buttermere this morning and had the place to myself apart from a runner and a couple of walkers

Quick and dirty hacksaw I made at work. It might not be pretty but it cut through a 2" steel tube.

A couple more shots from the other day at Wasdale. The lake was choppy so I was using the river for reflections

Just tied 38 consecutive bowlines. It’s done. The crazy quasi tipi is repaired, waterproofed and completely re-rigged.

Here are my first shots of the Aurora. They are not great but from here in West Cumbria

Fly tipped rubbish down my road. -_-

Young swallows repairing an old nest, possibly where one was born. We had a nest here on the loggia of our apartment in the South of France but following a predation by a hawk the nest had remained unused for some years. It seems a bit late to breed but I'd like to hear any thoughts on swallow breeding habits.

The pair mostly ignore us,flying in over our heads as we sit at the table.

Some tit fell down my chimney yesterday. I gave it a wash off because its eyes were gunked up with soot.
