Man with a Very Big …

…. Lens, behind him, …. on the ridge leading from the Croix de Chaux which I walked up on mountaineering skis today, very slowly! He had been there for at least an hour and had had a fly by from a bearded vulture. So I must go there next week and wait too. The forecast is still wall to wall sunshine for the next five days so the ski pistes are getting harder.

Extra of a chamois sunning itself on the edge of the forest.

One of Preston’s doctors phoned this afternoon to say he is doing well, so thanks for all your good wishes. She will phone again tomorrow, we really appreciated her call as we can’t phone the hospital at the weekend.
