Sky at Brightwell Baldwin

If you saw my post earlier this week on Brightwell Baldwin you would have seen a view through the village, well this is another but showing the sky overhead that day

Above is the original photo I took in the village, after posting it Google waved their wand and it came out looking like it does below. You choose which you prefer

Happy Skywatch Friday

The Muffin Van

Brightwell Baldwin

Taken in the beginning of June when I visited the church there. Not much to tell you about the Village other than it's built around the country house there the seat of the Stone Family who are buried in the church there. The house was burnt down in 1786 and rebuilt in 1790 but has since been demolished leaving only the kitchen wing surviving an interesting cruciform dovecote nether of which I saw when I was at the church

The Lord Nelson Public House which is 17th or 18th century

It's now a gastro pub and from what I have seen quite busy

The old pub sign showing its age

And a look up through the village

 I'll leave you with this shot of a cottage I saw when I parked up near the church

Leave Sleeping Dragons Be

The Porcupine

Some more photos of my visit to Cotswold Wildlife park a couple of months ago. One of the animals I saw was the Porcupine. Now to me I'd never seen any spiny animal any bigger than a Hedgehog so when I saw the Porcupine I was surprised as it was bigger than my Dog and the quills on its back really long, not only that it can shoot them out at predators any way I took a few and had a nice little surprise while doing it

Looking through the glass into the pen it lived

 

Another one which was outside
