I forgot to add, in the excitement of the Tom Jones concert, when we came home, I popped out for a stroll with Bunty. It was almost midnight and all was quiet as we crept along the lane near the village hall. As I glanced up, a round, tubby shape was sticking out from the otherwise straight trunk of an old Scots Pine. I wondered...
Creeping closer with the headlamp, I pointed up to see the lovely round shape of a Tawny Owl looking back at me. Its head swayed side to side, making wonder who was actually watching who ( hoo hoo). He then flew off, silently over head to continue his evening in peace.
The owl wasnt in the least concerned about health and safety at Alnwick Castle...
That is just a beautiful little illustration!
