It turned into a beautiful autumnal day today, with vibrant colours at sunset. The sky was shot with grey clouds which glowed gold and pink. These moments are all too brief. Within a couple of minutes the colour had washed away.<\/p>\n

Those colours reminded me of a shot I'd taken earlier in the day. It was also a colourscape, but this time formed of the fish in one of the ornamental ponds at work.<\/p>\n

Back at home the vixen's nap was disturbed by what we think was a badger coming in from a neighbouring garden. It was certainly something large, and the noise it made as it entered the garden goes some way to discounting a cat (I'm certain it wasn't another fox). In any event, Bold shot up the garden on three legs and high alert. It's been over a week that she's been limping. She is now willing to place the foot gingerly on the ground which is a good sign that her injury is slowly healing. Here she is resting shortly before the intruder startled her.<\/p>\n

Finally, because I know there's a huge cuteness factor in the shot and I'm shamelessly willing to exploit it, here's tonight's hedgehog portrait…<\/p>\n
