I spied this red beauty outside our window a few weeks ago:
whoops, on alert... must've been my lens bumping on the window pane:
Yes, my number's up... but I was able to take one last quick snap:
I still can't find my bird book, but am sure Stewart of Wild Bird Wednesday will be able to give an identification.
Join him and all the people who delight in the joy that birds bring to us daily... just click on this image for the link:
Thank you kindly for your visit :D)

Happy New Year with Cherries on Top !
Here we go again ... another year. Good wishes to all of us that it's a great one :D)
Lovely to be back, and I'm keen to catch up with everyone once more.
Random offerings in this post, starting with dessert:
oooh la la.... memories of a trifle that was definitely not to be trifled with! Our Daughter's Christmas Day Delight... it had everything, and more ! We slept well that night ;D)
Now for a walk along the sandy shoreline.
Couldn't resist snapping this truly random find:
Here's a photo opp that I did set up.
I plunked the mussel shell in the water and was happy to watch it drift on its way - floating and bobbing along:
| Sometimes, it's lovely to just float along. I remember as a child, floating with only my eyes, nose and mouth out of the water, hearing nothing much at all except the underwater sounds. |
A couple of 'firsts for 2015' ... our first coffee for the new year:
| I couldn't resist adding a loveheart I cut and pasted from our coffees we played around with a few years' ago |
... and our first Turkish Coffee for the year. Very strong - hits the spot!
| We treated ourselves to some pretty little cups |
Ha ha, I warned this post contained random offerings :D)
Here's a recycling thingy I thought up because I don't like having to clean chopping boards after cutting up raw meat... you know, how those little bits of meat (especially chicken) cling determinedly to the board.
Well, I washed and cut empty UHT milk containers and they're excellent for one-off uses as cutting surfaces. No washing up, just throw away after use!
Finally, I'd like to end on a pretty note.
The ability to photograph white flowers seems to escape me, however, I had a lucky moment a few weeks ago:
Thanks for popping over :D)
