Going away anywhere is strange and makes me feel nervous pretty much constantly, but we managed to have a really nice few days away visiting family and friends for the first time in absolutely ages.

Maybe it's just the Brit in me but it always seems that the best weather falls around bank holidays and never over them. Not this weekend, though. It's been lovely weather all weekend so we went for a walk. Lots of animals out enjoying the sun, but I can't say I'm envious of sheep in this heat.

Got a squirrel feeder for the fence outside our living room window because the squirrels like the fence.

I just don't have the time or motivation to try and make some sort of nice photo post with some structure or theme, but I do still take photos I'd like to share.

He's getting closer! He will be my friend

We've got squirrels in the garden at the moment. I'm not sure what's up with them but a couple of the younger ones have almost no fur on their tails.

I deviated from my route slightly to incorporate a hill I've never done before

Returned with a proper camera after watering the allotment. I love ducks.

We get seagulls in the garden a lot, stamping to drum up worms. Sneaky little devils, but you can't argue with its efficacy.

We were going to go to Brighton Pavilion's annual open day but the queues were ridiculous and I didn't want to spend my entire Sunday hanging out with the pigeons

This lazy brat didn't move from this position nearly the entire day.
