Tea Time?
Chronicle Of Vital Individual Distancing, day 70.
The associations here are obscure - Cheshire Cat, the character in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, directs Alice to the 'Mad Hatter's Tea Party'. The tea party is perpetual because the Hatter has fallen out with Time and it is always tea time, 6 o'clock. Also, the White Rabbit in that story carries a pocket watch. All this is really just for my own amusement!
The pocket watch was assayed in Birmingham in 1907.

Nest builder
Chronicle Of Vital Individual Distancing, day 69.
Look this way, then that way … check that no-one will see where the nest is being built!
DOF too shallow, ISO too high. Pity. No time to alter the settings: the bird suddenly appeared, and then was gone.

No parking here, presumably?
Chronicle Of Vital Individual Distancing, day 67.
This ‘No Parking’ message seems to be very clear.

Yellow Iris
Chronicle Of Vital Individual Distancing, day 63.
Lovely flower, slightly concealed but thriving at the edge of Poynton Pond. I deliberately included the blurred leaf to provide framing and a sense of space, and to tie in with the similar blue-toned leaves nearer to the flower.
