But I was particularly intrigued by this scene. Can birds really read? Have they accepted the sign literally without noticing the spelling mistake? Are they waiting for their apples?
🙂 I like seeing the Lapwings & Greylag Goose – I’ve never seen those! Not exactly likely over here.
Thanks Lynn. I think they’re primarily located in the British Isles.
I have never seen a lapwing! Curious little tufts on the head. Thank you! Enjoyed all the others as well.
They’re interesting aren’t they? I don’t think the lapwings like crossing the Atlantic!
I’m impressed you got that close to the lapwings – beautiful but too skittish for me to ‘catch’ ….
The sign is brilliant! I couldn’t help but laugh and the images it brings to mind are bizarre – or maybe that’s just me?! 😀
They are generally very difficult, but these two, and several friends, were at the water’s edge beside the causeway – until they saw me taking an interest!
I found the last scene laughable too – but perhaps that’s just me !!
I especially enjoyed seeing the lapwing so close. Great images!
Thanks Dina. I was very fortunate.with the lapwings.
