Fudge the European Eagle Owl

We decided to go west today to avoid the road closures associated with the Windermere marathon. We visited Muncaster Castle with C&N. It was great. The grounds were awash with colour and the weather was lovely and sunny.

We went along to 'meet the birds' owl display which is where we saw Fudge. C&N and J&D have clubbed together and bought me an owl photography experience near Penrith for my birthday. I am really looking forward to it but will need to be a bit quicker off the mark than I was today. Several of my photographs were a bit blurred.

Today marks exactly 1 year until C&N's wedding. So there was a lot of talk about the nuptials and the exact timetable for the day and who is doing what and when.
