BLUE

On a cold morning, in the warmth of the sun, branches in my garden took on a silvery glow.

Hawthorn.

Hazel.

Rose-hips.

Amelanchier.

A brisk North-Easterly wind.

SPARROWHAWK ...

I've seen many a sparrowhawk playing at being remarkably agile in my garden over the years, but not until today had I had the opportunity to view one at such close range. Such a fascinating bird, it had decided to perch on my back fence for at least five minutes, spending the time carefully observing its surroundings. Suddenly it took me by surprise by flying off at a sharp angle low into a lilac tree. I could hear the other birds being taken by surprise too, and whether it got its catch I do not know? That was the last I saw of it.
