On a seat on a coastal path. According to this source, he was an artist specialising in bird-life. It’s a nice way to be remembered: the seat overlooks a mere where there were lots of diving (and squabbling) ducks this morning.

Until this morning, wandering through a beautiful little pine-wood, I had no idea what pine cones looked like in their formative phase.

And then I came on this.

When we disturbed the branch, a dense cloud of very fine pollen wafted into the air.
