Stonewall Fences

 
Some stonewall fences near Ayeside just south of Windemere in England's Lake District
 

. . . and this swan was showing off it's beautiful plumage as the keen breeze ruffled it's feathers
 
 
Joining in the fun at Wild Bird Wednesday - thank you Stewart for hosting

    Beautiful swan! And I love the stone walls! You should link up to Good Fences also, a Thursday meme hosted by Theresa at RunAroundRanch Report. You can find her on my sidebar.

    The stone walls and houses in the Windermere area are just amazing. The swan is going to a ball.

    Hello there,
    thank you for your visit to petal pics.
    From your bio I hadn't expected a photo of the lake District :-)
    Lovely it is too. Are you on a trip around the old country ?

    I've always thought stone fences were romantic in a way. :)
    Lovely swan!

    Girl Friday: As part of an 8 week holiday in April-May last year, incorporating 3 house exchanges in the UK, Brittany and Italy, I spent 4 weeks in England. It was a greatly blessed trip, catching up with friends not seen for 40 years, making new friends and exploring more of the various countries' countrysides. (Thank you for dropping by my blog - have not had success in returning the compliment!)
