General (county) news - 3rd May 2010

• Bank holiday monday here today, so I took the opportunity to get up at sparrowfart (4am) and drive to my favourite bluebell wood, near Nettlbed in Oxfordshire, in time for the sun to rise.
• Unfortunately the sun didn't really rise - very overcast, very flat light, but I got some half decent shots anyhoo.



• Also in the wood were a roe deer, maybe half a dozen muntjac (landing all over the place (in joke)) and a tawny owl.
• In my opinion, the bluebells are not as prolific as last year.
