The beautiful weather of week or so ago has given way to chill grey skies, though with no more than a hint of rain. It's cold and breezy . So just a couple of shots today of a great black-backed gull, which is the largest of the native gulls. Typically it's on its own (I've never seen more than a handful in the same area).
I've made a couple of brief forays into the garden tonight. No sign of the foxes, but one shot of a newt to add some colour to the shades of grey.
The signs for the rest of the week aren't great, but you never know. Something interesting may appear.
Camera note: gull shots taken with the Canon 7D and EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L USM IS lens. Newt taken with the EF 24-105 F4L IS USM.
