| I had just taken a look round Beatrix Potter’s house in Near Sawrey and was on my way back to the car. Outside the Tower Bank Arms was a bush. A male sparrow kept flying into the bush and out again, never in the same direction twice. I concluded he was trying to draw my attention. So I looked round the bush for an angle to shoot, and found one hole through which I could get a shot. The decaying foliage framed him perfectly. As is so often the case, once I had taken the shot, the bird flew off and went about his normal business. ****djk 0187 |
