We are hoping for a better result his year

than our previous two harvests which were wiped

out due to inclement weather.

Oh! So Young!

 

Sadly, I now fit into the catgeory where I think

all but one or, maybe, two in this shot are young.

 

 

Young teachers, teaching soccer skills to

very young students.

It’s a hard life

Black Swans and their family

 

Mother and child…

We watched as the group prepared to cross the Chobe River.

Our concerns were for the smaller individuals of the

family/herd…in particular the tiny one

in the middle of the group.

 

We need not have had any concerns though as the crossing wnet smoothly, with one small trunk ppopping up eveynow and again…

…after receiving a helping hand from one of the older elphants.

The leader of the herd waited on the other side

until all members were accounted for before she

began to move away from the water’s edge.

Which Way

*****

There seems to be kilomtre upon kilometre

of this type of scenery along…

 

…A brisk walk along Torquay’s Surf Beach

Also at Torquay a bride walking down

a somewhat sandy aisle,

to her groom.

leaves

flattened structure of a higher plant,
typically green and blade-like,
that is attached to a stem directly
or via a stalk.
Leaves are the main organs of photosynthesis
and transpiration.

Plenty of autumn leaves around…

…this time of year…

Japanese Maples showing some colour.

This shot was taken in

St James Park

London.

Google tells me it is a

Melianthus major.

This is far classier than the

Castor Oil Bush

which I have known it

since I was a kid.
