Well, it's time for a Photo Scavenger Hunt post again. As always a big thank you to Kathy at Postcards from the P.P. for continuing to inspire us and get us thinking and snapping each month! Here are my efforts for January!

Company
A group of cyclists keeping each other company along the Monsal Trail. Photo taken just at the exit of the Headstone Tunnel. Yes, we finally got to walk through the tunnels last Sunday - it was a good way of getting out of the very strong wind!
Entrance.....
......to the Manifold tea-room, Ilam Country Park, Staffordshire. Inside lots of people in warm hats and boots chatting and eating scones!
In your bathroom
Just one little corner!

Mess
After baking a cake!
Odd
Not odd weird but odd unusual! A white fallow deer at Dunham Massey, Cheshire where we went yesterday to see the winter garden - I'll do a post about that later next week.
Soft
The squirrel's fluffy tail looks soft as does the distinctive white fur behind his ears!
Warning
Of the danger of soft mud at Tittesworth Reservoir, near Leek, Staffordshire. I don't think the duck is too worried about it!

Great photos. I found this list a bit challenging!
ReplyDeleteI did exactly the same for '2'! I wondered if you were going to use the little triangular park you mentioned as something odd!
In reply to your comment, yes we could arrange a Lud's Church walk in a few months when the weather is nicer!
Great job Rosie. The white fallow deer is particularly pleasing. x
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful deer! I love squirrels' tails they look so cute and fluffy, well done for getting such a good pic, when they come to visit my garden I always end up with very fuzzy pics.
ReplyDeleteAlison
great photographs. mine are bad this year.
ReplyDeleteLoving your photos - once again mine are mediocre!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos, I especially like the distance and warning.
ReplyDeleteLove the squirrel - you are an early bird, I still have 1 more picture to find.
ReplyDeleteI love the duck and the squirrel and, unusually, the distant view of the power station :)
ReplyDeleteGreat photos Rosie. So glad you got to do the tunnels - you get a real different perspective from them I think. (Though I still find them scarey!) xxxxx
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pictures !!!
ReplyDeleteI love them all !
Hugs from here!
Great photos, I'm joining in also and will post my photos tomorrow. Well done.
ReplyDeleteYour white fallow deer was quite interesting, liked your sign too, I didn't realize there was any kind of mud but soft mud.
ReplyDeletenice photos! the in season one makes me realise I need to get my act together if i'm going to make marmalade this year!!
ReplyDeleteIt was a tough list in some respects, but you have some great entries! Amazing photo of the deer, and I nearly used the same "mess" photo! hehe!
ReplyDeleteI liked this list because you could be a bit creative with . you photos are great!
ReplyDeleteCheers
Lovely photos. I can just see Rugeley Power station from my window and can always see the clouds billowing from it! Suzy x
ReplyDeleteHi Rosie, just a quick note to let you know I have nominated your blog for the versatile blogger award, for full details check out my blog! Suzy x
ReplyDeleteLove your photos for this challenge, we have a herd of white deer near us, they look like unicorns in the distance
ReplyDeleteI tried to get a picture of the soft fluff behind Jester's ears but he wasn't feeling photogenic!
ReplyDeleteA great mix of shots,
Ellen
Enjoyed your great photos Rosie. Loved the squirrel, I've never been able to capture one so close. Never made marmalade but never too late to learn!
ReplyDeleteI've so enjoyed looking through your photos. We visited Dunham Massey sometime ago and went for a walk around the deer park, I don't remember seeing a white deer then but there's a few in a nearby park and they do stand out. Loving the thought of that marmalade and cake, you just made me wnat to go and put the kettle on :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat photos. The deer one is lovely.
