The Organ in the Lady Chapel - Liverpool Catherdral


A return trip to Liverpool Cathedral, this was taken in the Lady Chapel like last year picture but this time I took a little more time time to look around more. This is the view if you turnaround at the alter and look back at the magnificent organ which I never saw last time. The organ was built by Henry Willis and Sons and is regularly used for worship, for weddings and for funeral services (subject to Archbishop of Canterbury's limitations and conditions).

Jaguar

A trip to the South Lakes Wildlife Park this week, it's a great place if you are a Lemur but not great if you are a big cat.

RSPB Burton Mere & Parkgate

A trip to the Wirral just in time for the predicted very high tide at 2.10pm, except the wind was in the wrong direction so it never happened. We saw lots of birds at a long distance including some Redshanks and a Little Stint and our first ever Water Rail at the Burton Mere Visitor center being chased by a grumpy Waterhen.

Our first trip of the year to Mere Sands wood, not much happening but we did have a brief sighting of one of the elegant Great Crested Grebes.

The Tree


Stuck in again with the builders so I am trying to be a little more creative and do some monochrome work. This tree was taken at Tarn Howes last November, the light was fading fast but it just caught this little tree at the edge of the water lighting it up.

Ferry Across the Mersey

A very high hide on the River Mersey with amazing lighting on the Liverpool waterfront. Technically there where two ferries on the Mersey today, the large Stella Line ferry plus in the distance the " real" ferry across the Mersey moored near the Albert Dock.
