New Brighton this afternoon. A nice place to chill.
Benty’s in full-on strawberry mode today #wirral 🍓
This afternoon I finally got a photo of the very flighty heron. It does its best to appear nonchalant as it crosses the road ahead of me before taking to the air and heading back in the direction of the mere (and ducklings). Fairly #crapNaturePhotography
It’s been a while since I last visited the cemetery mere. Trapped by an unexpected downpour, I spent some quality time with the ducks. Delighted to see three ducklings have survived thus far (zero last year) though the pesky heron is still around 🦆
Up early for a meander at #Thurstaston yet again. Field of barley (?) seems to be a magnet for skylarks. Hard to do justice to the sunbeams peeping through the clouds. Coffee at Flissy’s.
Memo to self: visit Leasowe Lighthouse during an Open Day this year (assuming the old knees are up to the 130 steps). leasowelighthouse.com/wp/
Early clifftop walk to #Heswall Field via Tinker’s Dell making the most of a gentle sea breeze. Intriguing info board by #Thurstaston Visitors Centre fast becoming of largely historical interest itself.
Morning spent zipping along the M53 chortling to #hmhb’s latest and pondering the magnificence of the northbound hard shoulder. #OblongOfDreams
Kicked a ball for the first time in far too long.
A few more photos from yesterday’s walk. #Thurstaston #Heswall
Swallows were busy feeding juveniles perched on barbed wire on the perimeter of #Heswall sewage works down on the Dee estuary. Fun to watch. #Wirral
A few general views of the joyous splurge of plant life at #RSPBBurton
Lovely morning for a poddle around #RSPBBurton.
Doesn’t look like the #Railway2000 train is visiting Liverpool or Manchester. Maybe saving it for 2030? railway200.co.uk/inspirati…
Nice idea. Exhibition train to celebrate #Railway200 news.railbusinessdaily.com/2025-tour…
#NewBrighton best known now perhaps for its street art and mermaids #Wirral
Coffee at the Floral Pavilion, then a wander around #NewBrighton #Wirral
Train Landscape voted favourite UK railway painting. BBC News - Train window view voted most-loved UK railway art www.bbc.com/news/arti…
Revisited my avatar photo yesterday in #Liverpool
Vivienne Westwood exhibit at the Walker and a reminder that the #Liverpool Biennial is on progress. www.biennial.com
Reminder that some early railway carriages used levitation instead of wheels.
Ohai! Yes, it’s the coffee place in the Walker Art Gallery again.
