Small erratic with a covering of lichen, by the Staffordshire Way footpath heading north from Trescott.

Muscovy duck, probably a male, which headed straight for me, doubtless hoping to be fed.

Silkie – a chicken with fluffy feathers – in the hen enclosure at Northycote Farm.

Daniels Mill, a restored water mill on a small brook which joins the Severn just downstream of Bridgnorth.

In the background a viaduct carries the Severn Valley Railway across the valley of the stream which powers the mill.

Sunlight coming from behind and at an angle, delicately backlighting the seed heads left from last year’s teazels.

Pair of goosanders in the river just a little way from the large gathering of water birds at the tip of Bridgnorth’s bylet (the small island in the Severn near the bridge).
