Swans and bees, Gheluvelt Park, Worcester: Monday, 23rd July, 2018.

5:00-ish.

Swan food for the swans.

When will my wings start to grow, Mum?

Another day, another bee.

Not a bumble bee.

Could it be a honey bee?

Gheluvelt Park walk: Saturday, 21st July, 2018.

1:00-ish.

Some folk say I'm no longer cute.

They don't know nuffink.

Mummy, why has that lady up there come to our park without any swan food?

Olde fella, in fairly new shoes, on a walk.

Flurry of activity on the pond as folk throw bread out.

Bumble bee.

Another one.

A different type of bee on a different type of flower.

4:00-ish.
A lion of the Droitwich Serengeti from our car in the car wash.

Cygnet Watch and Busy Bees, Gheluvelt Park, Worcester: Friday, 20th July, 2018.

Midday-ish.

Some folk say I'm no longer a cutie.

I'm offended.

Flowers and a busy bee working hard.

River Severn & Gheluvelt Park, Worcester: Thursday, 19th July, 2018.

11:15-ish.

Somewhat larger than a narrow boat.

This River Severn cruise boat does a daily trip in the summer 

and must be the largest boat on the river nowadays.

12:10-ish.

Another bee working hard.

You've gorra admire their unflinching dedication to repairing 

all the damage mankind is doing to the planet.

Swan Watch and other things, Gheluvelt Park, Worcester: Wednesday, 18th July, 2018.

12:10-ish.

Berries of some sort or another.

I am no longer cute.

My feathers are all grey and scruffy.

But you wait, in a month or two I'll be dead 'ansome. Oh yes.

(Unless I'm a female, in which case I'll be gorgeous).

A busy bee.

Two busy bees.

(This photo could be upside down).

There you go. Try it the other way around.

Swan Watch, Gheluvelt Park, Worcester: Monday, 16th July, 2018.

2:45-ish.

The last time you took a photo of me I was about the same size as a duck.

Now, just a few days layer, I'm one and a half times their size.

Impressive, eh?

Mum and her cygnet are getting all the food but Dad is keeping cool on the pond.

It's not as hot today as it was at the weekend and 

the bees are back and working hard to keep our planet going.

80th Anniversary & Bugatti Festival, Prescott: Saturday, 14th July, 2018.

11:00-ish.

We begin with a slow wander around the paddock on a warm and sweltering morning 

and find Bill Chaplin……….

…..about to depart for a second run up the hill

in his 1600cc Empire Evo 2 Hayabusa.

Getting their backs into it.

We love our Ford Escorts.

Doesn't everybody?

The lunch break's over and we're in position for some 'left-to-rights'.

Michael Marshall - 1927 2300cc Bugatti Type 35b.

Richard Durrant - 1966 2238cc Triumph TR4A.

Time for some 'left-to-rights'.

Fiona Rogers - 1996 1990cc Subaru Impreza STI RA V.

Olde-fella with an ever-increasing bald spot.

Who would wish to take a photo like that?

Pat Cooper - 1959 1275cc Austin Healey Sprite.

A picture of concentration as Vicky prepares to take a………..

…….jaunty-angle shot of one her beloved Ford Escorts.

Scott Moran going into the final part of The Esses…………

……..and gets a bit of a wriggle-on accelerating out of it in his 2005 3500cc Gould GR61X NME.

Hepworth Ferguson 4WD

(not certain who's driving this).

3:30-ish. Time to make our way home now.
