………Frost on the ground again this morning but this Magnolia is still giving - nature has a way of surviving! A grab shot this morning for ’Smile on Saturday’ that has the theme ‘Nature in hand’, inspired as I looked out of the window down the garden this morning. Alan:-)……

………Or more popular called Mother Ives Bay, the new(ish) Padstow Lifeboat station is here - miles away from Padstow actually. Taken almost a year ago now but nice to look back and remember, and dream of seeing it again.. Alan:-)……

This little egret (egretta garzetta) had been standing on the mud of a mainly dried up lake. A few very shallow pools of water remained and the bird decided to seek a meal in one of them. Photographed on Hat Yao Noi, Phang Nga, Thailand.
