This week I am taking a break from work.

This week I am taking a break from work so this morning Vicki and I went in to Doncaster to buy some shoes for Vicki. We had great success and returned with two pairs of shoes and a new coat.

After lunch we took the dogs to Cusworth park, something they consider to be a treat. There are different smells and things to see. Vicki took bread to feed the ducks, there were some sideways looks from the dogs, I think they thought that they were expected to in in the water to get a share. Neither took the plunge.

One of many different water foul to be found on the lake.

What a lovely day out for you two, now that is a way to spend a day off from work. What did you use to take such a great close up photo of the coot, the red on its beak is just fantastic.

Hi Sara, I'm not knowledgeable on birds but I think Doc maybe right when he calls the bird in a picture a Coot.

The camera I used to take the pictures is a Canon Power Shot SX280 HS. It's a handy camera in that it has a good zoom in it but can still easily fit in to my pockets.
