Skywatch Friday - nice weather for ducks

It was tricky to get shots of the sky, everytime I looked up the camera lens filled with water! Most of the photos were taken from underneath the black bridge. I ended up cutting my walk short as my coat had soaked through and I was worried I have to go to A&E to get my wrist re-set. Really grim weather but as my Mum says "it's why Britain is so green".

  1. Hmmmmm... Yes, my mum used to say that too!!!! I love your cows. Reminds me of a post I did in September and the one at the right of shot reminds me of the one a blogfriend called 'Mal Hombre'. Wouldn't want to cross him! Love your raindrops - kind of sums up your experience of the day, doesn't it! Hope your weather improves. Ours is a little better, but of course we've also had our fair share of rain.

  6. We've got similar weather too, but no ducks to smile at through the raindrops.

    I feel more like that white fellow in the first shot, personally. Bring on summertime!

  7. We were in the UK in July many years ago and it rained often...very often! But your Mum is right about the green!
    I love the cows, they are so sturdy and must just think"and now there is this ...wet" or just "Moooo". I am sure our California cows are not pleased by all the rain we have had this Winter!
    Thanks for sharing the lovely moo cows with us.

  10. Great captures! Somehow I don't think the cows are enjoying it nearly as much as the ducks. :)

  14. Well, I guess that is the plus side, but green is much more green when there's blue sky. I hope your rains subside. Love the cows!

  17. You know that is our "excuse" on Haida Gwaii but it really doesn't make the rain any easier to take, especially at this time of year! Great photos. Have a nice weekend.

  18. It has been raining a lot here too lately. I'm ready to see the sunshine again. From the looks of it, so are those cows.

  19. Curious cows - what a great shot! And epic mud...

    I remember that sleeping through the night phase. Nowadays the problem is getting them out of bed in the morning.

  20. Oh and PS, thanks for the book mention. I know the Charlie Connelly book. I'm a sucker for anything with 'shipping forecast' in the title.

  22. Ugh! Rain, rain, rain! I'm afraid I'm ready to say goodbye to grey winter. Thanks for taking the time to post your nice comments over at Skirts and Wellies. Very impressed with your photography and I love the header. It really cheers me up in the depths of winter.
