*** Another walk that needs to few explanation to the pictures. I had an hospital appointment later in the day but didn't want to waste such a beautiful morning so we decided to have a walk around Sunderland Point and check that Sambo's Grave was tidy. To relieve boredom the walk was done in the opposite direction to that we usually do.  ***

Looking towards the Fylde coast

When we arrived home Edith's newest addition to the family was waiting for her. "Lucky" a ringed pigeon appeared in our garden about 3 weeks ago looking a little worse for wear. Edith as been feeding it regularly and now it flies to her. Meanwhile I have put the ring details on a couple of pigeon forums but with no luck. A day or two after this picture "Lucky" was seen doing what comes naturally in springtime and a while later stopped coming. At the time of going to press there as been no return.....It'll just be my luck for it to turn up with a few young ones.
