Gorgeous pics as always, Keith. You and Adrian - two of the best blogging photographers out there. I can only imagine the results. Enjoy!
Hi Keith...Love the first photo,but of course I am a flower nut!!
The Primroses here a in pots lol..you could sell them for $5.00 for a 4inch pot..lol
Very nice photos of your feathered friends.

Thank you grammie. I thought you'd enjoy the flowers ;)
Hi m8 hope you have a good time hopefully bump into you again round one of the lakes :)
Wonderful captures!

Hi Zeph; cheers. Yea, I'm usually wandering around the lake most days. :)
Thanks Kerri :)
Thanks Gary. It's been very sunny here today, almost like summer :)
Love the flowers and the birds. First time I have enjoyed seeing a House Sparrow. Is it true that they are declining in the UK and Europe? You can have the ones here in the states back.
I really like your capture of the Willow Warbler singing!
Lovely birds, Keith. Especially the Blue Tit and the Wren. Wonderful spring climate :) Greetings!
Thanks Jean. Yea, unfortunately the numbers of House Sparrows are in decline; some places have none at all now.
They used to be so common when I was a kid.
Thank you Joanna. It's been a lovely day here today.
I love your look at spring keith, what a pretty world!
Have a nice time with Adrian. Beautiful photos.
Thanks Springman. It certainly is a wonderful world, to use one of "Satchmo's" most famous songs.
Thank you Bob. Looking forward to it.

Great set of images Keith.
Have a good time in the Lakes and I hope you manage to get lots of super subjects to photograph and video.

Have fun in the Lake District but remember it takes a bit longer up there to walk all around the lakes!
Great work Keith!

Beautiful flowers and birds,Keith,I'm sure you'll have a lot of interesting stuff to show when you get back!
Lovely photos Keith, always so difficult to pick a favourite but for me it has to be the Willow Warbler, beautiful!
I assume you are safely there by now. Have a great time, you deserve a break :)
Wish I could be there with you and Adrian to just sit and listen and learn.
Wow I love the attitude of the wren a lot, but the blue tit is also very nice... I hope you enjoy the break!
The blue tit image is a work of art!
the wren is so cute! have fun and enjoy your trip.

I love primroses but I have never seen them to grow wildly. I usually buy some in a pot in spring and after their flowers are gone I replant them into the garden. But they never appear next year...
PS The shot of the Chaffinch is No 1 for me, the bird splendidly personifies a pretentious and well-off man :-)
Thanks Petra. We have quite a few Primrose growing wild here. They are a lovely sight.
