Easy now, Mike. You're just sleep deprived from all that bat chasing. :-) When posting PESOs I reuse old HTML files, and sometimes I forget to exchange all the code. Sorry about that.

I can't see a bird shape (birdie is a diminutive in English) or any other reason within the picture to call it that. So, I'm wondering if it is a name related to the geography or what?

It sorta looks like part of a stage rally section. Too bad they were working on the culvert in the lower left.

Hi! Just after the first crop of silo grass, it's time to fertilise the soil. And it's all done in the spirit of recycling...:-) http://www.oksne.net/paw/fertiliser.html Jostein, technically it looks somewhat oversharpened... But my monitor seems to be starting thinking of its creator... Though some might say Excellent detail :)... Otherwise, I must notice (I think I mentioned that to you in person as well) that you seem to have very good eye for landscape pictures with roads in them.

We have a clay substrate here and it takes much longer for the rainwater to disperse, if it's not causing flash floods. I can guide this back on topic to photography at this point, because in the last ten years, it's almost as if I have moved to a different country. I live in close proximity on two sides of Epping Forest and a big park to the third. Up until about the start of the 90s, most of the forest was surrounded in low lying areas by marshland, which easily swallowed even severe storm water running off the hills. Nearly all of that land has been built on now with a large private housing estate and a truly vast warehousing operation. Added to that over this period, there has been a demand for more and more off street parking and the culture of concreting or wooden decking to gardens has quite changed the landscape - very much for the worse - which is really what my main interest of photography is, recording the changing face of the 'local' area. I rarely look at the results over a period, because it's a picture of ugly urban sprawl, with no redeeming features. Anyway, we did have a bad storm a few years back, which for the first time ever, resulted in a serious flood a couple of miles away. I expect if it really came down now over here it would cause major damage. So there you are, instant local climate change. Not that long ago a serious storm wouldn't have worried me at all. Now:-( It's hissing down here at the moment. I'm going to Manchester at the weekend. 8-) LOL! Malcolm
