Richmond

Last Friday we enjoyed an afternoon out with my nephew, Nicky. We first dropped him at an Art Workshop and wandered the streets of Richmond and after picking him up we discovered Pughs Lagoon, just on the outskirts of town. We had some lunch there and then walked along the water to take in the beauty. Here is some of it:

Two windows of an old building in town that caught my eye.

A statue in a garden of a grand old house.

I thought this home was quite lovely; the colour of the
house combined with the green grass and blue sky did
something for me...

Some detail of the home, yes I have a thing for windows.

There were plenty of geese around here at Pughs Lagoon,
they can be very noisy and as Nicky found out,
a tad aggressive if you come too close!

This little 'willy wagtail' happened upon a nice big
meaty bone that a dog didn't seem to interested in...

The family Swan...

A little cygnet wandered off on it's own...

Such graceful creatures.

A bit of green...
