February is rarely much of an event in photographic terms, but this year it featured the odd grand walk and some unexpected sunshine, as well as a savage storm or two. And I got a new camera, a Panasonic TZ70.

Oh, dear, finished February at the end of March then somehow contrived not to post it here...
Further from February fill-dyke finally.
I've been busy, mostly taking photographs, although the first pic featured may have something to do with it too.

A mob (probably not the correct venery term?) of cormorants have taken to spending their time high in a line of trees on the opposite bank to Goodland Gardens. This is the best shot I got of one before yesterday, but you'll have to wait a while for that one .
