Wolves Wild

A jackdaw stalking around the churchyard at Burford church, ignoring the steady stream of sightseers.

Fallen from a roadside walnut tree, one of the nuts lying in the grass.

Donkey lying down in a field. It was still quite early in the morning, but already very hot. The donkey was devoting all its efforts to trying to persuade flies to stop bothering it.

Common fleabane coming to the end of its flowering season. On a plant growing in the extensive green space of Christ Church Meadows, by the River Cherwell in Oxford.

A swan and her two cygnets which kept swimming up and down on the River Windrush at Burford. There was no sign of a cob.

Five or six sleek horses, each with a young foal, in a steeply rising field on a very warm sunny morning. One mare running, closelfy followed by her foal. All the others standing in a group, sharing the small patch of shade cast by the neighbouring wood.

One picture in the middle of the sequence shows a horse with a coat, which was grazing in another field a little further down the same quiet road.
