Pleasant and Sunny

Shot of the Day

It was another day that started wet then ended up pleasant and sunny. I spent the morning preparing a chicken curry from a slow cooker recipe book Mrs Tootlepedal kindly gave me. I omitted some ingredients and added others, mainly because I didn't have some of the ingredients. I set the cooker going at 12:30 pm so it would ready at tea time. After a quick sandwich for lunch I thought I should advantage of the change of weather and mow the back lawn and do some tiding up.  After I was finished I rang Tootlepedal and we agreed on a visit to the feeder station. 

The Woodpeckers were on good form, came in abundance and provided much entertainment and photo opportunities. 






After tea I returned to try and get some sharper shots with the tripod but I somehow have mislaid the quick release bracket that attaches the camera to the tripod so I had make do with handheld shots, which were so disappointing I deleted all the woodpecker pictures, but I did manage to get some reasonably interesting shots.




The Curry was very tasty!
